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...

@mattbc on twitter: "The truth is that White House office of science and technology policy has been relentlessly pushing on Indoor Air Quality (#IAQ) as a key measure to help protect us all (especially chronically ill, disabled, and immunocompromised Americans) from this pandemic."
