Resumo(s)
Why schools? High-contact settings where respiratory pathogens spread rapidly - young children have developing immune systems and limited hygiene autonomy. Critical Gap: no standardised, evidence-based IPC protocols tailored to school operational assistants - cleaning and support staff who are frontline but often overlooked. InChildHealthProject - This study is a spin-off of a European research project, “Identifying determinants for indoor air quality and their health impact in environments for children: measures to improve indoor air quality and reduce disease burdens”.
