Evaluation of Safe Decontamination Strategies in Trainee Dormitories

Abstract

Problem, Hypothesis and Military Relevance: Problem: Asymptomatic individuals can still shed infectious virus into ambient air and increasing rate of infectivity. Hypothesis: Does the use of H202 air purification systems decrease the number of respiratory-like cases and loss of training days in high-traffic facilities like trainee dormitories through a reduction of infectious pathogens in ambient air and surfaces? Military Relevance: This project addresses the following capability gaps: 163 Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear Defense (CBRN) Decontamination, 312 Enhanced Force Health Protection and Austere Support.
