Clean Air ‘Fix’ SPREADS Viruses?! [Beware]

Dear Turapür Today Reader,
These days everyone is taking precautions to stay as far away from nasty, airborne viruses.
And in the age of COVID-19, it’s no wonder!
And even though vaccines for COVID-19 are here, it still means that millions of Americans (maybe even yourself) are using every trick in the book to keep the air clean.
Whether it’s installing germ and allergen-killing air filters in your heating and cooling system… or using the latest-and-greatest gadget designed to circulate clean air in your home…
But what if I told you that one of the most popular clean air ‘fixes’ out there could actually SPREAD VIRUSES?
Here’s everything you need to know.
According to a new study in Physics of Fluids, air purifiers may INCREASE the spread of nearby viruses, especially in confined spaces.
You see, any confined or small space is going to have poorer air quality than a space with proper ventilation. This is especially true during a global pandemic.
And adding an air purifier into these tight spaces can actually increase circulation of the dirty air – which may already be riddled with germs!
Researchers looked at how this air is circulated in an elevator – a tight space with little airflow.
They found that installing an air purifier inside an elevator did alter the air circulation significantly… but did not eliminate airborne TRANSMISSION.
In fact, the air purifier actually helped increase the droplet spread!
Now, this isn’t to say that air purifiers aren’t effective. Air purifiers are an amazing tool to help circulate clean air…
But when you’re dealing with tight spaces, air purifiers simply can’t clean ALL of the air.

So, what does this all mean for you… especially in the age of COVID-19?
First of all, if you do find yourself in a tight space (like an elevator), be sure to wear a mask. And, if you can, consider taking the stairs instead of the elevator. Stairways are more open and provide better airflow.
If you’re using an air purifier at home, be sure to use it in a larger space like your living room.
You can also open your windows from time-to-time to get some fresh air in the house. And with spring weather just around the corner, it’s a great time to let that fresh air circulate!
And most air purifiers come with replaceable filters that can be cleaned or replaced. Just be sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions on cleaning and replacing the filter.
