Betsy Todd, MPH, RN, Nurse Epidemiologist and Clinical Editor for American Journal of Nursing answers questions related to COVID-19 transmission. These questions were submitted by attendees of the webcast, Calming the COVID-19 Storm: Delivering Effective Clinical and Nursing Care, which took place on May 7, 2020. This podcast covers the following questions:

• Should we be following droplet or airborne precautions, or what??
• What is the evidence for airborne transmission of the virus?
• Some media reports say COVID-19 is more and more being diagnosed in people who have followed stay-at-home recommendations and rarely went outside. How can this be?
• How long does the virus remain in the air after intubation in a negative pressure room?
• How many negative COVID tests are needed before we can take a patient off of isolation?
