To that point, the WHO (and the CDC) had dismissed the possibility that COVID could be an airborne-transmitted infection.<\/p><p style=\"font-family: Barlow, sans-serif;font-size: 23px;text-align: start;color: #5a5050;font-style: normal\">In the commentary, clinicians and scholars pressed the WHO to recognize the airborne transmission route of SARS-CoV-2. They provided \u2013 and demanded attention to &#8211; the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-scientist.com\/news-opinion\/the-covid-19-coronavirus-may-travel-in-aerosols-67380\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">growing body of evidence<\/a>\u00a0that established \u201cbeyond any reasonable doubt\u201d that the virus spreads indoors through tiny aerosols \u2014 and that the WHO\u2019s recommendations should fundamentally change.<\/p><p style=\"font-family: Barlow, sans-serif;font-size: 23px;text-align: start;color: #5a5050;font-style: normal\">But the WHO wasn\u2019t easily persuaded.
