紐約時報近日發(fā)表一篇文章，文中針對如何回答“是否有可能在搭乘電梯時感染新冠病毒？”這個問題記錄了有關專家的意見。其中弗吉尼亞科技大學氣溶膠專家Dr. Linsey Marr，波特蘭州立大學工程及計算機學院院長Dr. Richard L. Corsi和阿爾伯塔大學傳染病助理教授Dr. Ilan Schwartz給出了如下建議：

避免與他人同時搭乘電梯；

在電梯內保持佩戴口罩，即使電梯內只有自己一人；

按電梯按鈕后應避免用手摸臉；

出電梯后立即洗手；

如果無法避免與他人同乘電梯，必須在電梯內每個人都戴著口罩時才進入電梯。

SCIENTISTS ADVISE ON TODAY’S ELEVATOR USE

The New York Times recently posted an article in which experts weigh in on answers to “Can I Get Coronavirus From Riding an Elevator?” Virginia Tech aerosol scientist Dr. Linsey Marr, dean of Engineering and Computer Science at Portland State University Dr. Richard L. Corsi and assistant professor of infectious diseases at the University of Alberta Dr. Ilan Schwartz give advice including the following:

Avoid riding with another person.

Always wear a mask inside the elevator, even if you’re riding alone.

Avoid touching your face after touching elevator buttons.

Wash your hands afterward.
