UNCOVER produces reviews on a broad range of questions related to the transmission and infectivity of COVID-19, in a variety of indoor and outdoor environments. Establishing how COVID-19 is transmitted and what factors contribute to infection risk is critical for planning how to safely reopen, and to manage the risks of COVID-19 transmission, in a wide range of different contexts. We aim to provide a thorough synthesis of the best-available evidence, in answer to questions about COVID-19 transmission and infectivity. This area of work is ongoing. If you are a volunteer interested in joining this review, or an external organisation interested in partnering with UNCOVER, please get in touch with us. Please take note of the dates of reviews and publications. Reviews produced early in the pandemic may have been superseded by more recent findings.
