Tired of masks? Improve your building's air quality

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

There are a lot of tools in the tool chest to fight COVID-19 and other respiratory ailments, but one that doesn’t get talked about enough is significantly improving the air quality in buildings. We wanted to find out how you improve a building's air quality and how hard it is to do so we asked Dr. Bryan Cummings to come on the podcast. Dr. Cummings is a research scientist at Drexel University who studies indoor air quality and healthy buildings -- we asked about the best ways to make the air better in a building, what 'sick building syndrome' is and how to avoid it, and how you can tell if an air purifier system is the real deal or if you're being sold a load of goods.
