C
In addition to standard precautions, use airborne precautions for patients known or suspected to have serious illnesses transmitted by airborne droplet nuclei. Examples of such illnesses include measles, varicella (including disseminated zoster), and TB. Airborne precautions are not appropriate for viral infections spread by droplet transmission, including adenovirus, influenza, mumps, parvovirus B19, and rubella. Contact precautions would be appropriate for a patient with pediculosis.
