Trying to understand CO2 as a control.
I understand this is a simplification.
Q1
If: (background CO2) = (x)ppm "15 Students 1 Teacher"
If: control for infection risk is = +750ppm CO2
Room after 3 hours use =
CO2 meter reading rises to (x)+750 ppm
It is at this point:
CO2 meter reading =>"equal to or greater than"
(x)+750ppm that it becomes unsafe.

Catchphrase:
HEPA plus Ventilation "IS" the Facemask of the Classroom!
"Everyone needs to find a way to understand this"
This is a simplified version obviously:
*=Relative Effect of
"(Volume of Area)+(*Masks)+(*HEPA)+(*Ventilation)+(*Distancing)=(Room Time)"
(Distancing=(calculation of *Masks+*HEPA+*Ventilation)

Would it be possible for a theoretical mathematician an expert in aerosole transmission and or ventillation to collaberate on the realtime effects of varying degrees of Ventilation vs Space Vs Children within a good safety margin in respect to classroom sizes and no. of students.
Some other parameters:
Air Changes and co2 monitoring.
Standard room sizes and cohort pupil sizes.
Volume of air in room (not all ceiling heights same.)
Movement to from classrooms. Length of lessons. etc.
