Author Correction: Aerosol and surface contamination of SARS-CoV-2 observed in quarantine and isolation care.

abstract：:Shear-waves are the most energetic body-waves radiated from an earthquake, and are responsible for the destruction of engineered structures. In both short-term emergency response and long-term risk forecasting of disaster-resilient built environment, it is critical to predict spatially accurate distribution of shear-w...
