Transportation hubs, by their nature, bring together people from a wide area – sometimes globally. This makes it essential to minimise the risk of infection which could go on to be even more widely spread.
People travelling often assemble in large numbers at transit hubs, such as ports, airports, and stations for railway, bus and subway services. They may also congregate on cruise ships and in hotels.
These sites bring together people from all over the world, so the risk of infection may be increased due to the diverse source of visitors. Additionally, the people using these hubs then either return to their homes or travel further, raising the risk that any infection contracted at the site may be spread widely.
This makes it essential that precautionary measures are taken. However, travellers may be used to different standards of safety – for example, social distances vary among different countries – so these may not be as effective as they could be.
As the first stage of protection, thermal screening at key entry points complements other safety measures by detecting elevated body temperatures that may indicate one of the key symptoms of coronavirus.
A compact system that operates in real-time will be inobtrusive and able to scan quickly enough to avoid exacerbating queues. It will also reduce the risk of dispersing any viral infection more widely through regional and international travel.
