SCIENTISTS ADVISE ON TODAY’S ELEVATOR USE

The New York Times recently posted an article in which experts weigh in on answers to “Can I Get Coronavirus From Riding an Elevator?” Virginia Tech aerosol scientist Dr. Linsey Marr, dean of Engineering and Computer Science at Portland State University Dr. Richard L. Corsi and assistant professor of infectious diseases at the University of Alberta Dr. Ilan Schwartz give advice including the following:

Avoid riding with another person.

Always wear a mask inside the elevator, even if you’re riding alone.

Avoid touching your face after touching elevator buttons.
