Ua wehewehe ʻia ka laha ʻana o nā pathogens ma ka lewa e nā mea kuleana like ʻole no ka manawa lōʻihi. I ka wā o ka maʻi ahulau COVID-19, ua hoʻohana ʻokoʻa ʻia nā huaʻōlelo 'airborne', ' airborne transmission ' a me 'aerosol transmission' ma nā ʻano aʻo like ʻole. Ua manaʻo ʻia ua kōkua paha kēia i ka ʻike hewa a me ka huikau e pili ana i ka laha ʻana o nā pathogens i nā heluna kanaka. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua hoʻohewa ʻia ʻo WHO no ka lohi loa i ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana iā SARS-CoV-2 ma ke ʻano he airborne.
No laila, i mea e maopopo ai, ua hoʻopuka ʻo WHO i nā wehewehe o ka hoʻouna ʻana i ka ea o nā pathogens a me nā huaʻōlelo pili ma hope o kahi kūkākūkā kikoʻī me nā keʻena olakino olakino a me nā loea.
ʻO nā ʻāpana hanu ʻeha (a i ʻole IRP)
Wahi a ka wehewehe hou. ua wehewehe ʻia ka huaʻōlelo 'infectious respiratory particles' a i ʻole IRPs nā ʻāpana infectious i hana ʻia a kipaku ʻia e ka poʻe i loaʻa i ka maʻi hanu ma o ka waha a i ka ihu paha ma ka hanu ʻana, kamaʻilio, kuha ʻana, ʻāʻī a kipaku ʻia. Eia kekahi, aia nā IRP ma kahi kikoʻī mau o ka nui, ʻaʻole pono e hoʻopili ʻia nā wahi ʻoki hoʻokahi e hoʻokaʻawale i nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi mai nā ʻāpana nui. No laila, ua hoʻopau ʻia ka dichotomy mua o 'aerosols' (nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi maʻamau) a me nā 'droplets' (nā ʻāpana nui nui).
He mea maʻalahi kēia ʻike o ka IRP i ke ʻano o kahi maʻi maʻi maʻi kahi o ke ʻano nui o ka hoʻouna ʻana e pili ana i ka pathogen e hele ana ma ka lewa a i ʻole ke hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka lewa.
Lawe ʻia ka lele lewa
Hoʻopuka ʻia ka lawe ʻana a i ʻole ka inhalation i ka wā e kipaku ʻia ai nā IRP i ka lewa a hanu ʻia e kekahi kanaka. Hiki i kēia ke hana ma kahi pōkole a lōʻihi paha mai ke kanaka maʻi a me ka mamao e pili ana i nā ʻano like ʻole e like me ka ea, humidity, wela, ventilation etc. Hiki i nā IRP ke komo i loko o ke kino i kēlā me kēia manawa ma ka ʻōpū hanu kanaka, akā makemake ʻia nā wahi komo. pili paha i ka pathogen.
Waiho pololei
Hoʻopuka pololei ʻia ke kipaku ʻia ʻana o nā IRP i ka lewa mai kahi maʻi maʻi, a laila waiho pololei ʻia ma ka waha, ka ihu a i ʻole nā maka o kahi kanaka ʻē aʻe e kokoke mai ana, a laila komo i loko o ka ʻōnaehana hanu kanaka a hiki i ka maʻi.
ʻO kēia mau wehewehe a me ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i nā pathogens a me ka hoʻouna ʻana ma o ka lewa e kōkua i ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana i nā papa hana noiʻi mew a me ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā hana olakino olakino.

E hoʻomaopopo ':
- WHO 2024. Hoʻopuka nūhou - Hōʻike nā keʻena olakino alakaʻi i nā huaʻōlelo hou no nā pathogens e hoʻouna i ka lewa. Hoʻopuka ʻia ma 18 ʻApelila 2024.
- Hōʻike kūkākūkā ʻenehana honua e pili ana i nā huaʻōlelo i manaʻo ʻia no nā pathogens e hoʻouna i ka lewa. . Hoʻopuka ʻia e WHO
