Item Comparative Aerosol and Surface Stability of SARS-CoV-2 Variants of Concern(Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2023-05) Bushmaker, Trenton; Kwe Yinda, Claude; Morris, Dylan H.; Holbrook, Myndi G.; Gamble, Amandine; Adney, Danielle; Bushmaker, Cara; van Doremalen, Neeltje; Fischer, Robert J.; Plowright, Raina K.; Lloyd-Smith, James O.; Munster, Vincent J.SARS-CoV-2 transmits principally by air; contact and fomite transmission may also occur. Variants of concern are more transmissible than ancestral SARS-CoV-2. We found indications of possible increased aerosol and surface stability for early variants of concern, but not for the Delta and Omicron variants. Stability changes are unlikely to explain increased transmissibility.
