This passing comment in tonight's #AAAR2022ID panel is one that really sticks with me. For much of this pandemic the thing that has F'd our collective response more than anything else is ppl's PERCEPTIONS of costs and benefits.

The strongly held BELIEF that running a box fan on low for 12h a day in every classroom of a school building for an entire school year will somehow bankrupt the district is straight up NOT TRUE.

Your PERCEPTION is wrong. Your off-hand comment is counter-productive. Your ability to do math is sub-par.
But this BELIEF is very strongly held by nearly all those in positions of power at schools bc frankly they WANT this statement to be true, so they don't have to deal w it.

Bullshit cost:benefit analyses lie at the core of our country's inability to do the right thing and deliver clean, healthy, safe air in all our kids' classrooms.
MATH v. Humans
Don't bet on MATH.
