APP TO DETERMINE SAFE SOCIAL/PHYSICAL DISTANCE FOR ANY AIRBORNE PATHOGEN (ABP) APP CALCULATES SCORE FOR TRANSPORT FACTORS AND SCALES BETWEEN MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM SAFE DISTANCES FOR ANY ESTABLISHED ABP THIS APP IS PARTIALLY DEVELOPED. EQUATIONS AND AIR MODELLING ARE ESTABLISHED VIA PUBLISHED LITERATURE, SOME OF WHICH USED BY EPA TO DEVELOP THE "6-FOOT RULE" HAS BEEN A STANDARD IN CHEMICAL PROCESS ENGINEERING FOR MANY DECADES, INVOLVING EVAPORATION RATES OF DROPLETS IN COOLING TOWERS. PROPOSED PATENT IS FOR AN APP FOR ANY SMARTPHONE, ANDROID DEVICE, OR COMPUTER TO DETERMINE SAFE SOCIAL DISTANCE FOR THE EFFECTIVE (CONTAGIOUS) TRANSMISSION OF ANY AIRBORNE PATHOGEN. THE DISTANCE IS DEPENDENT ON AND CALCULATED FROM ENVIRONMENTAL, SITE-SPECIFIC, REAL-TIME FACTORS SUCH AS METEOROLOGY, AIR POLLUTION AND AEROSOL AND DROPLET TRANSPORT PHENOMENA. THE APP HAS BEEN CODED WITH THREE SEPARATE APPS TO DETERMINE SITE-SPECIFIC METEOROLOGICAL CONDITIONS AND FORECAST. OTHER DATA FROM EPA'S GROWING STORY MAPS THAT HAVE BEEN SHOWN IN LITERATURE TO AFFECT AIRBORNE PATHOGEN TRANSMISSIBILITY CAN BE INCORPORATED, SUCH AS POPULATION DENSITY, AIR QUALITY, SOCIO ECONOMIC FACTORS SUCH AS THOSE HIGHLIGHTED IN BIDEN'S ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE MAPPING, AND MORE AS THEY ARE DISCOVERED. THE OUTPUT WOULD BE A SCORE THAT IS RELATIVE TO THE SOCIAL/PHYSICAL DISTANCE NEEDED TO BE CONSIDERED BIOLOGICALLY SAFE, OR IN OTHER WORDS TO ACHIEVE BIOSAFETY FROM AN AIRBORNE PATHOGEN STANDPOINT. THE RANGE OF SCORES WOULD BE DIVIDED INTO CATEGORIES SIMILAR TO THOSE USED BY EPA TO SHOW RELATIVE BIOSAFETY AND WHAT RANGE OF PHYSICAL DISTANCE WOULD BE NEEDED AT THE USER'S CONDITIONS. IT WOULD ALSO SHOW DISTANCES FOR MORE COMPROMISED USERS. THE FACTORS OF EACH DISEASE WOULD INCLUDE WHETHER THAT PARTICULAR PATHOLOGY IS TRANSMITTED PRIMARILY THROUGH AEROSOL OR DROPLETS, OR BOTH. THE WEATHER DATA USED COMES FROM THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE, WHO IS UPDATING THEIR API DATA INFRASTRUCTURE TO ACCOMMODATE A LARGE INCREASE IN REAL-TIME DEMAND FOR THESE DATA. by Kozak, Jeannie Marie (Track this)
