Ventilation is important to prevent the spread of COVID-19, but how can you tell how good your home's🏡air is?

We keep on saying “It’s not rocket science”…because it really isn’t! A #VaccinesOnly approach is simply not enough, it never was. We need MULTILAYERED mitigations, a #vaccinesPLUS strategy.
