Before developing medications for an epidemic, one solution is to go back to the physical and built environment to reduce its impact. Epidemics have transformed our built environment because of the fear of infection. Consequently, architecture and urbanism after the Covid-19 epidemic will never be the same. Although the current global epidemic poses a challenge at all levels in the built environment, it will take time to develop an antivirus-enabled paradigm to reduce the potential risks or stop the virus from spreading. This study imagines what the antivirus-built environment looks like based on the lessons learned and the importance of designing a healthy and sustainable built environment. Many unanswered questions require further multidisciplinary studies. We aim to search for answers and learn from this forced experiment to add additional security layers to overcome future virus-like attacks.

防病毒构建环境:从 Covid-19 大流行中汲取的经验教训。
在开发针对流行病的药物之前,一种解决方案是回到物理和建筑环境以减少其影响。由于对感染的恐惧,流行病改变了我们的建筑环境。因此,Covid-19 疫情之后的建筑和城市化将永远不会一样。尽管当前的全球流行病对建筑环境的各个层面都提出了挑战,但开发一种支持防病毒的范例来降低潜在风险或阻止病毒传播还需要时间。这项研究根据吸取的经验教训和设计健康、可持续的建筑环境的重要性,想象了防病毒建筑环境的样子。许多悬而未决的问题需要进一步的多学科研究。我们的目标是寻找答案,并从这个被迫的实验中学习,以添加额外的安全层来克服未来的类似病毒的攻击。
