Q

Environmental controls (why we admit to negative pressure rooms)

A

To prevent the spread and reduce the concentration of infectious droplet nuclei

Controlling the source of infection by using local exhaust ventilation (hoods) and diluting and removing contaminated air by using general ventilation
