WTF. Why on earth are you hiding the data SMART RESTART unless you know that your STUDY is FULL OF CRAP and DESIGNED TO SCARE PEOPLE.

oh and PS- new CDC guidance that came out today? Literally not one word about air changes etc- it says improve ventilation by opening windows when possible.


Agreed. This woman is making a fool of herself. And that's putting it nicely. This is such a d*ck move to refuse to share the FOIA-d information. It's really incredible.

Because the requirements for standard HVAC aren't the same as recommendations for a pandemic. Same with fleet and HBW. Pre-covid requirements are met when they were built.

layperson refuses to publicize the data- they will only publicize their interpretation of the data.


Exactly. Layperson wants to control the narrative.

What does this even mean, they "published a study"? As in, they wrote something and put it online? I can publish a study on Medium saying whatever TF I want and then I've "published a study." These people are out of their minds. Not a one of them knew anything about any of this 6 months ago. Now they are using what they've learned on Twitter to become self-appointed experts. I am so done with Arlington.


yeah- pretty much. Anyone who 'publishes a study' and refuses to share the underlying data loses all credibility with me. Especially when that same person claims that all they want is 1) transparency and 2) are self-proclaimed non-credentialed experts.

So much butthurt.

Sit down, OP, while the rest of us work to make schools safer for our kids to return ASAP.

Yeah, one of the newer schools that was designed to maximize air quality and rates of exchange, with tons of data and automatic feedback loops in place, is listed as one of the lowest in air quality, according to the SR people.

I have reservations about how they’ve interpreted the data, especially since the person heading up this initiative is in no way an expert.
