Surface Pathogens on Study Floor: Pre- Versus Postinstallation
| Study Floor—Pre | Study Floor—Post | |
|---|---|---|
| RRA | 274 | 406** |
| RRW | 223 | 39* |
| CORR | 74 | 17* |
| CA | 35 | 17* |
| DA | 10 | 7 |
Notes: CA = community area; CORR = corridor; DA = dining area; RRA = resident room annex; RRW = resident room wing.
