AboutThe chief scientist at the WHO admitted it [https://www.science.org/content/article/who-s-departing-chief-scientist-regrets-errors-debate-over-whether-sars-cov-2-spreads].Denying the airborne transmission of COVID was the biggest mistake that has been made during the pandemic. Canadian public health agencies have still yet to clearly state that COVID is airborne. This led to prohibitions of respirator use, prohibitions against HEPA filters, spending time on all the wrong measures and poor focus on indoor air quality.But this is a much bigger issue. All respiratory viruses, whether it’s the common cold, influenza, RSV or COVID – they are all airborne and spread best indoors. If we want a healthier society, it’s time to address indoor air.Unfortunately, people now need to become experts on how to clean indoor air to keep themselves healthy and advocate for a better society. This blog will go through how these viruses spread and how we can clean the air.About MeMy name is Joey Fox. I’m a professional engineer with more than 10 years in the HVAC industry.
