The GOOD: CDC supports improving ventilation in schools

The BAD: it's buried in their new guidance

The SOLUTION: let's unbury it and make sure every school knows about

Item #1 in the report (yes, #1), lists 5 key "Mitigation strategies to reduce transmission in schools"

It doesn't say 'ventilation', but it does say 'cleaning and healthy facilities'. I use 'healthy buildings' for header when talking ventilation, so this looks promising...

And, on this page, if you scroll down, you find the section on ventilation

(yes, now you can see why I say ventilation is buried. Instead of details, we get yet another link...)

Alright, when we finally click 'ventilation in buildings', we get to this page which actually has the detailed info on ventilation and filtration (side note: this took ~10 months for CDC to produce this page, even though we knew this last winter...)
