Abstract

Viruses can potentially spread through sewage and ventilation systems. This paper addresses the sources of offensive smell in China due to exposed sewage lines in commercial and residential buildings. Several examples are provided along with the specific instructions on how to solve these problems short-term for travelers and longterm residents. Ultimately this global problem can be solved by government intervention and setting up government offices enforcing building codes with appropriate inspection structures
