Abstract

While science improves our understanding of infection and the "miasmas" hypothesis has been ruled out by the discovery of bacteria, fungi and viruses, the way these are transmitted from human to human has been recently debated. The idea that respiratory infection such as SARS or influenza is only acquired airborne has been recently criticized 5 . The available obviousness suggests that all routes of transmission (droplet, aerosol and contact) have a role to play. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
