The appearance of the contagious virus COVID-19, several revelations and environmental health experts punctually predicted the possibly disastrous public health complications of coexisting catching and airborne contamination-arbitrated disease. But much attention has been given on the outdoor-mediated interactions. Almost 3.8 million premature deaths occur every year globally due to the illness from indoor air pollution. Considering the human staying longer span indoors due to restricted human activities or work from home, the indoor air quality (IAQ) might show prominent role for individual health life. Currently, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ensures no regulation of indoor airborne pollution. Herein, the paper underlines the common bases of indoor air pollution, poor IAQ, and impacts of the aerosolized airborne particles on the human health. In order to address these challenges and collective contagion events in indoor environment, several emerging control techniques and preventive sustainable solutions are suggested. By this, more innovations need to be investigated in future to measure the impact of indoor air pollution on individual health.
传染性病毒COVID-19出现后,一些知名人士和环境卫生专家及时预测了经接触传播和空气传播介导的疾病共存可能带来的灾难性公共卫生并发症。但人们更多地关注了户外介导的相互作用。全球每年因室内空气污染导致的疾病死亡人数近380万。考虑到由于人类活动受限或居家办公,人们在室内停留的时间更长,室内空气质量(IAQ)可能对个人健康生活起着重要作用。目前,美国环境保护局(EPA)对室内空气传播污染没有相关规定。在此,本文强调了室内空气污染、室内空气质量差以及气溶胶化空气传播颗粒对人类健康影响的共同基础。为应对室内环境中的这些挑战和集体传染事件,提出了一些新兴的控制技术和预防性可持续解决方案。据此,未来需要开展更多创新研究,以衡量室内空气污染对个人健康的影响。
