Unfortunately I don’t have the energy to put together some info for the mega this week, hopefully I can pull together something for next week though. As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:
“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.
Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.
Can anyone tell me about air filters? No energy to go look for information
Heard they can provide some protection from the COVID in an indoors space? How effective is that? I will probably move back to my family soon, they go outside a lot more often and I worry about catching COVID from them.
How big is the air filter? Do you just put it in a corner of the room or what? Are they noisy?
look up corsi-rosenthal boxes when you’re feeling up to it. the tl;dr is that you use a/c filters and a box fan. my understanding is that they are very effective for small, enclosed spaces.
if noise is a concern i have seen some made with tiny filters and desktop pc fans and the like. the main takeaway here is that they’re relatively easy to make and afford.
