Abstract

Pandemics such as COVID-19 have wreaked havoc on society in general, and they are still having a lasting impact, with peak infections in summer and winter. Novel emerging infectious diseases and re-emerging ones that are attracting renewed attention will continue to affect workplaces in the future. Herein, we focus on the latest reports on COVID-19 and explain what preventive measures are necessary in the workplace, taking into account the route of virus infection. Although droplets and airborne exposure are the main infection routes, contact infection cannot be overlooked. Infection prevention measures include the uses of natural and mechanical ventilation, air conditioning equipment, and masks as well as the recommendation of vaccination, all of which have reported effectiveness However, since indoor environments vary, we do not recommend preventive control through any one measure alone. Instead, implementing infection control by using a combination of measures is important for adaptation to various situations.

[预防感染的措施,包括工作场所的病毒]。
COVID-19等大流行病对整个社会造成了严重破坏,而且它们仍在产生持久的影响,夏季和冬季的感染高峰期。新出现的传染病和重新引起关注的再出现的传染病将在未来继续影响工作场所。在此,我们重点介绍最新的COVID-19报告,并根据病毒感染途径说明工作场所需要采取哪些预防措施。虽然飞沫和空气接触是主要的感染途径,但接触性感染也不容忽视。感染预防措施包括使用自然和机械通风、空调设备和口罩以及建议接种疫苗,所有这些措施都已报告有效。然而,由于室内环境各不相同,我们不建议仅通过任何一种措施进行预防控制。相反,通过采取综合措施实施感染控制对于适应各种情况非常重要。
