"Public health officials have continuously stressed social distancing, mask-wearing, and hand-washing as means to stop the spread of Covid-19. “But have you ever heard a restaurant reopening announce they’ve improved ventilation or increased ventilation? No. This is really the point,” Morawska says. If Covid-19 is in indoor air, we should also be doing something about the air."

People bitch about the changing dynamics and variables of COVID-19, but if anyone knew about National Response Framework (NRF), Pandemic Annex, it warns that new pathogens will be characterized by changing dynamics and variables.

If Trump, administration, and GOP were smart enough, they would have looked at the NRF and Pandemic Annex to guide them through the pandemic. Instead, the response was quite chaotic.

I agree the response to the pandemic was botched, but it was botched by the experts giving advice. Trump stopped travel before they recommended and followed along with all of their recommendations. I also find it a little hypocritical to say the GOP, this is a national epidemic and I have not heard the democrats come up with a single suggestion or show the slightest interest in working with the administration. I understand that it is an election year, but I think that had nothing to do with this. Our politicians would rather see a higher body count than to try and work with each other. The GOP is in charge, but the democrats did absolutely NOTHING to help. I had thought they were ALL elected to support us.
