A couple mornings ago, I was chatting with my mom on a video call, & I noticed that she had a face mask hanging from her ear as she had just gotten back from the store… I didn’t realize that she was still wearing a face mask in public spaces, and these mornings, I barely see face masks when I am out in public & with the COVID-19 mandates coming to an end, I feel that wearing a face mask will eventually go away, then although I no longer wear a face mask in public spaces, I am still sad about the air quality for indoor spaces, then some places have replaced their Heating, Ventilation, & A/C systems to include air cleaners.
It is in those places that I feel the most comfortable breathing in the air.
A couple years ago, indoor air quality was a huge deal, but now that the pandemic is over & the mandates are going away, people are less sad about the air that they are breathing in, however for me, indoor air quality is still on my radar. In fact, when I go to restaurants, I still prefer to sit outside where I know that I am breathing in fresh air. Also, when I am at home, I make sure that my indoor air quality is optimal by changing my air filter & I also make sure that my Heating, Ventilation, & A/C component is well took care of because it is responsible for the ventilation in my house. All in all, however I am no longer wearing masks, I am still easily vigilant about indoor air quality, & I will consistently be regardless if there is a future pandemic or not.
