  1. I keep reading about Corsi–Rosenthal boxes as DIY air purifiers that outperform all commercially available air purifiers.

    You literally only duct-tape four HVAC filters together and slap any regular PC fan onto them.

    US-Americans recommend the brand #Filtrete for MERV-rated HVAC filters, but in Europe that brand costs at least twice or thrice as much as in the USA.

    Are there any equivalent affordable HVAC filters in Europe with a MERV rating of 8 or 13? Or do I simply have to swallow the additional cost because HVAC filters aren't as ubiquitous in Europe as they are in North America?

  2. Hey #CovidIsNotOver people! I start a new job tomorrow (fully in person) & am a little nervous about keeping myself safe. Here’s what I’ve got in my toolkit:

    1. #3MAura and #VFlex #N95 #Respirators
    2. #Hepa purifier for my desk
    3. #Co2 monitor
    4. #Enovid #NONS nasal spray
    5. #CPC mouthwash
    6. #SipMask

    I’ll only eat outdoors, weather permitting; otherwise I’ll find a private room & run the purifier before unmasking. I will use #NasalSpray several times per day.

    Anything I’m forgetting? 😷

  3. 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.
