[Breaking] "Closed Space Danger"... US CDC Acknowledges COVID-19 'Airborne Transmission'

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Ga-yeon] On the 5th, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) acknowledged that COVID-19 can be transmitted through the air in unusual environments such as poorly ventilated indoor spaces.

The CDC stated, "We acknowledge that some reports have documented limited and unusual situations where a COVID-19 infected person transmitted the virus to others who were more than 6 feet (approximately 1.8 meters) away, or infected others shortly after leaving a location."

The CDC added, "In these cases, transmission was associated with activities that induce heavier breathing, such as singing or exercising, and occurred in poorly ventilated and enclosed spaces."
