COVID is Airborne so it is critical to ensure any gathering spaces are well-ventilated. Classrooms are especially important since occupants are there several hours, are frequently unvaccinated, plus are unmasked at times (adding to the risk of transmission).
Seize the opportunity to work with Classroom Ventilation Calculator creator, John Oudyk and other OHCOW occupational hygienists to better understand the factors affecting Indoor Air Quality and infectious disease prevention in classrooms. Then learn how to identify and source key pieces of information in order to assess the safety in individual rooms. Bring your own data so we can help you start your calculations using this helpful tool.
Bring along:
- Room dimensions (including height)
- Any information on HVAC for the building or space
- Brand and model of any air purifiers
- Presence and operability of any windows
- Any questions you have about COVID safety and airborne transmission
