Abstract
COVID-19 is believed to have originated in the city of Wuhan, China around December 2019. This virus spreads very easily, through human to human contact, or touching surfaces which may possibly contain the virus. Through this transmission, travelling passengers and airports are under attack the most. In this study, we will investigate Iraq’s largest airport, Baghdad International Airport and the passenger travel trend. The study will also provide an insight on various screening method that were introduced to track the symptoms of the virus. Overall, in the present times, several regulations are being operated in many airports around the world to control different pollution types such as air pollution. Amidst these pollutants, the occurrence of coronaviruses is troublesome and there is an urgent need to identify safety precautions which can be adopted to prevent the spread of COVID-19, specifically at airports.
