"But what about when you have dozens that coming in over the day? And it's not just the COVID-19 patients.

You can't put them all into that negative pressure room that the ER has." (FierceHealthCare)

음압 병실

Definition from Wikipedia:
음실압(陰室壓, 영어: negative room pressure)은 병원에서 격리시 병실 사이의 오염을 막기 위해 사용하는 압력이며 이것을 사용한 병실을 음압 격리병실(negative pressure isolation room, NPIR)이라고 한다. 환기 장치를 사용해 방 안의 기압을 음압으로 유지함으로써 외부의 공기가 방으로 들어올 수는 있지만 방의 공기가 밖으로 나갈 수는 없게 한다. 결핵, 홍역, 수두, 메르스 따위 공기매개 접촉전염병 환자를 격리시킬 때 흔히 사용되는 방식이다.
