This is a very important study done by researchers at the CDC on #corsirosenthalboxes and other DIY air cleaners. It found that they reduce aerosols by up to 73%. It is very meaningful to have this independent confirmation of effectiveness. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

⁦ Aerosol expert @kprather88, who recently gifted a #CorsiRosenthalBox built by 5th graders in CT to @WHOSTP, has suggested using the Defense Production Act to build 40 million CR boxes, allowing us to place 200- 300 boxes in every school in the country. @CleanAirCrewOrg

Today Kim Prather (@kprather88) gifted a #CorsiRosenthalBox to the @WhiteHouse, as part of her outreach on the importance of cleaning the air to prevent transmission of SARS-CoV2. Nicknamed “Air Force One,” it was presented to @WHOSTP by Prather and @MarinaC_Dyb of @UConn.
