The Necessity of Engineering Control for COVID-19

This study analyzes and summarizes the importance and necessity of developing a complete set of "fire extinguishers" to stop the spread of COVID-19 and other respiratory infections. From the perspective of the control hierarchy, source control is the most effective way to eliminate emissions, followed by pathway and receptor control. From the user's point of view, these devices are designed and used separately by infected and healthy people.
