[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, back to the topic at hand, now that we are seeing the virus spread across the country, and to rural areas in force, perhaps density isn't the issue.[/quote]

It looks like HVAC sure is. Will every new multiple unit building henceforth in DC be required to have HEPA filtration with super powerful UV, as well as anti-bacterial, antiviral technology in doors, elevators, banisters etc? Love to see the densifier Mayor take a look at this is in all her "planning".[/quote]

Why would any of this be necessary for long-term planning when this pandemic is likely to be over within a year or two? Also, no one is all that concerned about surface spreading anymore, so the UV light on banisters is particularly unnecessary. [/quote]

But why NOT have all that?  Seems like a good a idea even without a pandemic.  Honestly, if we had as much cleaning/sanitizer pre-COVID as we do now, I wouldn't have been opposed to it.[/quote]

Because it’s clear that at least some of the people in this thread are suggesting no new multi unit dwellings should ever be built without having all this stuff required, which is just going to either make them wildly expensive or make them not get built. It’s like requiring underground parking: it isn’t necessary, just costly and time-consuming. [/quote]
