Today’s video is all about airborne vs droplet precautions for Nursing Students and NCLEX Review.

Droplets contain bacteria or viruses that people cough, sneeze, or exhale, then land on surfaces. Airborne transmission occurs when bacteria or viruses become aerosolized and travel in the air. Both can enter your (and patients') lungs by inhalation without the proper personal protective equipment (PPE).
