DESCRIPTION:Since the first case was identified in December 2019\,  the CO
 VID-19 pandemic has spread worldwide\, exposing considerable limitations i
 n our understanding of the mechanisms for the transmission of airborne dis
 eases. For a disease like COVID-19 to spread\, the pathogen needs to be tr
 ansported through the air from an infected person to a susceptible individ
 ual. However\, after it is expelled inside droplets of respiratory fluid\,
  there is a great deal of uncertainty surrounding where the pathogen will 
 end up. Indoors\, droplet dispersal and airborne transmission\, is control
 led by the ventilation flows in buildings and therefore understanding the 
 fluid mechanics of these processes is essential for preventing the spread 
 of airborne diseases.
