Aerosols: how dangerous is it to go out for a meal? 3D study from Heinsberg shows the imminent danger with and without TAC V+ air purification

It has been suspected for some time, but has now been confirmed by numerous virologists: the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is not only transmitted through droplet infection, but actually in large part via inhaled aerosols. These particles, which are ejected when breathing and speaking, are tiny and, due to their light weight, float invisibly in the room air for up to several hours.

Air purifier TAC V+ creates safe visiting zones with protection against infection in nursing homes

The extent of the risk of infection with corona virus is currently still evident in nursing and retirement homes that are particularly in need of protection.  Only a few days after the general lifting of the ban on visiting nursing homes, 31 people in a Düsseldorf nursing home are now infected with the corona virus. In another senior citizens’ home in Langerwehe (Düren district), 33 residents and 19 employees have tested positive for the virus in recent weeks. Other cities are currently testing the residents of their homes across the board, as random tests also revealed symptom-free infections in the beginning. Renewed bans on visits have been imposed, and there are now also stricter hygiene rules and protective measures for the nursing staff.

Corona risk: Is flying safer than a going to the dentist? We believe we’ve found the perfect solution to this question: Maximum health protection for dentists and patients

Virologists and dental associations are in agreement: very small infectious particles (so-called aerosols with a size of approx. 0.3 – 0.4 μm) present in indoor air are one of the main causes for the rapid spread of the coronavirus. In his recommendations for dealing with the corona pandemic in schools or comparable institutions, Prof. Dr. med. Dieter Köhler writes: “Corona viruses are mainly transmitted via respiration; coughing and sneezing are less significant as compared to bacterial infections”.

Corona risk: Is flying safer than dining out at a restaurant? We are convinced we have found the perfect solution to this question: Tables don’t need to remain empty!

Virologists and scientists are in agreement: Aerosols (tiny respiratory droplets) that linger in the air are one of the key reasons behind the rapid spread of coronavirus. Only about 10 per cent of coronavirus infections are transmitted via direct contact or smear infections. Half of all infections can be attributed to the inhalation of infectious aerosols that float invisibly in the air in closed rooms. This is the reason restaurants are often touted as potential hotspots, as places where large groups of people gather in a small amount of space. In order to prevent infection, a minimum distance of 2 metres needs to be maintained or tables kept empty.
