2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) Pandemic: Built Environment Considerations To Reduce Transmission
ABSTRACT With the rapid spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that results in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), corporate entities, federal, state, county, and city governments, universities, school districts, places of worship, prisons, health care facilities, as...
