Saving on ventilation is actually making you lose money as a business owner! 💸

Here is an example of the issue:

It has been scientifically proven that by being in a room with stale air (CO2 levels above 1400 ppm), your cognitive abilities drop by 50%. 🧠 Therefore, a company…

Study at Twente university who saved almost €17k in energy costs under 12 months just from shutting sashes on lab fume hoods. And even more by lowering building vent rates at night. Lab ventilation can be very costly but there’s ways to be more sustainable and safe #ESCMIDGlobal

My take home so far from #ECCMID2024 is that if we want the environment to be taken seriously, we need to do more intervention studies with epidemiologists. The evidence around measures like ventilation still aren’t making it to the table. But such studies are really hard…

You breathe in ~11,000 liters of air every day. What's in your air? #AirQuality

Watch this space! ⬇️ it’s so important to bring real scientific expertise to bear on emerging disease events, and to foster it so that it is available when it’s really needed.

With rising H5N1 infections in dairy cows and one confirmed infection in a farmworker, time to share this resource from Monica Schoch-Spana, PhD circa 2009 pandemic: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20825335/

We need to talk more about how to protect farm workers from this occupational hazard of H5N1.

Was hard to get airborne transmission into medical journals. But 3 years ago the dam broke. All in the same week.

Honored to deliver closing remarks Indoor Air 2024, 10 yrs to the mos when I did the same at IA2014 in Hong Kong. The world & indoor air sciences have changed much since then. Hope I can do justice to the end of a great conference & give everyone food for thought about the future.

Because COVID origins is suddenly topical again (hmmm because it is an election year?) I thought I’d share again the article Lawrence Gostin and I wrote on the topic.
