Abstract: Airborne transmission of viral pathogens is dependent on the generation, exhalation, and deposition of virus-laden aerosols from infected to susceptible hosts. Furthermore, most virus transmission assessments reported have been conducted in serologically naïve, healthy animals; expansion of studies to include hosts with diverse immunological and/or health profiles to better elucidate how altered host states modulate release of virus-laden aerosols post-infection is needed. Not all laboratory-generated aerosols are created equal Aerosols can be generated from liquid suspensions of virus in controlled laboratory settings but can vary widely based on equipment and established procedures between laboratories.
