@WJBL Landlords in Seattle, too, are threatening tenants with fines and eviction for installing AC units in windows of apartments. Of course, there’s no support here in “Realty World” for landlords to provide AC and MERV13 or HEPA filtering to tenants as part of basic leases. #TenantRights #ClimateCrisis #WildfireSmoke #PNW #PacificNorthwest #Wildfires #AC #ACunits #HEPA #MERV13 #SeattleCityCouncilFail

RECORDATORIO:
🟧 NO es raro protegerse para NO contagiarse de #COVID19. Eso se llama adaptación.
🟧 Raro es estar en medio de una epidemia y hacer como si no pasara nada. Eso se llama eugenesia.

#COVID19 flambée dans l'état de NYC & NY.
Les données officielles <10 août, sont très inquiétantes.

Fight back against poor COVID infection prevention policies by becoming/supporting safe businesses. Check out @whn 's spotlight broadcast on how a dentist office protects staff and patients from airborne infections:

“Real Benefit:
Often, schools that have stronger masking policies are lower #socioeconomic status. They don't have high-level ventilation and #HEPA filters, so masking becomes more important. Moreover, at the lower-socioeconomic status schools, families are more likely to be multi-generational, have higher occupational exposure, and more in-home exposure (smaller homes, more people, less ventilation).”

When a team of doctors, scientists and engineers at Addenbrooke’s Hospital and the University of Cambridge placed an air filtration machine in #COVID19 wards, they found that it removed almost all traces of airborne SARS-CoV-2.

Things that seem impossible are possible when you fight hard enough. I'm very excited for my friend Michael Bailey and his team Indoor Air Care Advocates, for pushing for getting HEPAs in Alabama schools: https://www.iaqadvocates.org/post/huntsville-city-schools-add-two-hepa-filters-to-every-classroom #CleanTheAir #CovidIsntOver #covid19 #hepa #IAQ

Walked into the eye doctor’s office in an #N95 with my travel #HEPA and it kicked off an extremely interesting (not necessarily in a good way) convo with the nurse about #Covid. Anyone want to guess her opinion on the #pandemic? Hint: she told me it’s just “so sad how China is ruining the world.”

At least she’s masked…baggy blue but better than nothing 🫥

Fans and filters arrived.

Okay -- if you want it to look pretty with the filter fitting inside the unit made for such, buy the Lasko FF305 Air Flex 2-in-1 20-inch Box Fan and Air Purifier. $69 at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B089P1Z38J/

It only comes with a MERV 10 filter -- which is NOT good enough to catch smoke and viruses -- so buy a 20X20X1 MERV 13 or better filter.

You can get the above at Walmart for $63, but they ship FedEx signature required which is rather a pain to deal with for many people.

**OR**:

For $34 buy the Amazon Basics 3 Speed Box Fan, 20-Inch, Black at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08XKC9K14?

MERV13 or better furnace filters (20X20X1). A 4-pack is $43: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09XC3RQ3J?

ScotchBlue painters tape for $4.50: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004Z4CP?

Or 2 48" bungee cords with hooks instead of the tape for $10 https://www.amazon.com/ZHOUBIN-Black-Bungee-Cords-Hooks/dp/B08SQFMGDS/

You could also spend $300+ each on large pretty HEPA room air filter units...

#Covid aside, the irony is strong where parents who yell about how their children wearing #masks is bad for their health, yet don't demand better #ventilation in schools.

2 birds. 1 stone.

I learned a lot last night during my first use of the 8020M.
The #CorsiRosenthalBox and #HEPA filter units are doing amazing work in my home: 2000-5000 particles/cm3 outside vs. 80-110 inside.
The pre-soaked wick works perfectly, and all the parts and accessories are doing great.

加拿大山火引發美國空氣污染 Tesla 車主啟動生化武器防禦模式自救
當 Tesla 在 2016 年為 Model S 和 Model X 車款加入生化武器防禦模式時，不少人都認為跟座位會發出放屁聲效或車廂內外燈光騷模式，同樣是 Tesla 電動車的一些毫無實際作用的噱頭。想不到因為加拿大有史以來最嚴重的山火，竟然令 Tesla 的生化武器防禦模式在北美大派用場。

My indoor #PM25 reading is FINALLY as low as is measurable by the #AirPurifier!

At some points yesterday, it was up to 35 ppm even with all windows closed, air conditioners off/sealed, exhaust fans off, etc.

Ok please help! I’m running on fumes and need the hive mind to do the work my brain can’t do at the moment: what HEPA-13 or better set ups can be purchased in Western Australia off the shelf or filters sized to go with a box fan do clean air to quarantine potentially exposed house mate? #CleanAir #HepaFilters #hepa

So do we care about #IAQ now? The smoke aerosols from the #ABWildfire are filtered by #n95 #HEPA, #CRBoxes, etc.

The #Wildfires could go on for months!

#COVID is just one tiny fraction of the particles of the CR-Box filter, such as smoke.

And the number of people in areas that experience 1+ days of dangerous smoke pollution per year has increased 27x over the last decade. #EpiVerse
