All

Professor Jose Jimenez at U. Colorado (Boulder) and his collaborators have developed and made available a very useful tool for estimating airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2.  It is very well documented and the assumptions are clearly stated. Dr. Jimenez is hoping for feedback and intends to update and modify as appropriate.

 

You can visit the estimator site at

Also, you can actually download the tool by going to file>download on the site.
