During indoor sport, aerosol-mediated SARS-CoV-2 infections are a major concern and there have been reports of superspreader event during Zumba and spinning classes. A unique, sports-specific concern is that ventilation can increase from 5-10 L/min at rest to over 100 l/min in untrained subjects and 200 L/min in elite endurance athletes and that this may increase aerosol emission. Also some individuals are concerned about the effects of face masks during sport. We now advertise two projects to investigate these issues.
