Move those holiday dinners outside and open the doors/windows. If you can’t afford to buy a fancy HEPA air filter, you can make a DIY version that has been shown to trap 99% of virus particles. Learn more about clean indoor air projects at @ASUBeingHuman:
Improving ventilation can help reduce the risk of #COVID19 spreading at your holiday gatherings. You can keep windows open, use exhaust fans, and use air purifiers. A breath of fresh air for a safer celebration. Find more tips here: https://t.co/aGOBDegU2s
