    1. Believe it or not, opening a window can actually disrupt that airflow and create sideways spread. If you’re going to open windows, install a baffle (basically a vent) to direct outside air downward.

      Aitflow must be upwards, out not at all!

    2. Reading list with summaries for ventilation & filtration, from a writer's POV (not scientist's)

    1. Simulated picture of an aerosol blob. Better video inside, but the size of the virus vs aerosol is, according to Prof. Jimenez is underestimated. Nice thread in general.

      • aerosol size: 0.25um (from this tweet explaining video's simulation)
    1. Brilliran video back from June 2020 busting myths of how filters (not) work. Wan der Waals forces, electromagnetic pre-charge of fibers, etc.

      • Images from the video also in this twitter thread:
      • Wealth of references in the video description.
      • 0:25-1:00: myth busting "sieve" filter.
      • 2:50: electrostatic cat image.
      • 4:42: diagram with particle size-ranges.
    1. Accurate mass weights of molecules (O, CO2 10's of Da) vs covid-19 virions 6 billions of Da vs aerosol 160bn Da).

      • Shelly Miller 2n speaker in EPA's IAQ webinar.
    2. Essential FAQ material for COVID-airborn.

    1. Position paper of the Gesellschaft für Aerosolforschu

      on understanding the role of aerosol particles in

      SARS-CoV-2 infection

    2. The air throughput ofthe unit is more important than the pure efficiency of the filter.

      MERV13 is better tha HEPA (according to GAeF).

    1. the ventilation we see here there the black line is is when there is no no effect we see many things that help that we will talk about later for example masks produce transmission

      slide: smoke trapped between plexiglass barriers, increase transmissions in schools.

    2. Important covid presentation from Prof Himenez

    1. Model C: Connected CO2 sensor with integrated battery and storage New 2022 enclosure design with modular wallmount and deskstand options Starting at 199.00$ CAD (+tx)

      Health sensors better be FOSS.

    1. Despite lively discussion on the role that UV-based technologies can play in reducing SARS-CoV-2 transmission [[27], [28], [29], [30]], available data on its use and impact are still scant, setting-specific and heterogeneous in terms of study design and assessed outcomes

      Scientific data on UV & airborn diseases still lagging behind other precautionary methods.

    1. an UV-C dose of just 3.7 mJ/cm2 was sufficient to achieve a more than 3-log inactivation

      Good to know measure of effectiveness.
