• Identifying airborne transmission as the dominant route for the spread of COVID-19 (2020, positive): “Available epidemiological (1) and experimental (12, 18) evidence, however, implicates airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 via aerosols as a potential route for the spreading of the disease.”

• Coronavirus (COVID-19) (2020, background): “Although respiratory aerosol spread was initially controversial, a committee of the National Academy of Sciences has subsequently concluded there is some limited evidence that it is also spread by respiratory aerosols [27-35]; other evidence of aerosol spread is rapidly accruing, with increasing opi”
