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

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?

Why isn't our government mandating (& providing funding for) improved ventilation in public buildings? Study showed with 2.4 changes of the air per hour, cases dropped by 40%.
