Good Indoor Air Quality requires adequate fresh air exchange. Avoid poorly ventilated indoor areas. Prudent monitoring includes temperature, humidity, carbon monoxide CO, carbon dioxide CO2, volatile organic compounds VOCs, formaldehyde H2CO, and particulates PM2.5. If you do not have a personal monitor, request one from the library of things at your local library.

MERV 13 filters and KN95 masks can slow spreading of aerosols. Observe public health regulations. Prudent practice, including vaccines to provide defense mechanisms.
