UK could be urged to keep windows open in effort to curb Covid-19 ( Archived) (58)

Britons could be urged to throw open the windows in an effort to keep coronavirus at bay as scientists call for a public information campaign to stress the importance of ventilation in reducing its spread.

A paper by the Environmental and Modelling group for the government’s Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (Sage), dated 30 September, reveals concerns over the role of poor ventilation in the spread of the coronavirus, noting evidence that suggests insufficient airflow could increase the risk of transmission from tiny airborne particles known as aerosols that can carry the virus more than 2 metres.

“Ventilation should be integral to the Covid-19 risk mitigation strategy for all multi-occupant public buildings and workplaces,” the team write.

It's getting cold here now, next thing you know we'll have to sleep on the balcony, everyone has their pet theory, no one knows the answer.

Any comments welcome.

In theory, you are right, but it's cold, raining, damp, and gloomy here, and not the crisp cold of Sweden.

Well even our government can't control the weather

The time has come to put the heating on incredibly high but we must be wary. There are men who would die of fright heating a well-ventilated area. Who left this back door open with the heating on full blast, do you think I'm made of money?

I thought they were doing that with cloud seeding and chemtrails? ...

It's -7c here, I won't be opening the windows today, tomorrow, colder with snow... ...
