Camfil Air Quality Professionals Explain the Role of Air Filters in Reducing Spread of Colds and Air

In a new resource, air quality experts explain how ventilation and air filtration can be used to prevent the spread of airborne illnesses in indoor spaces, where they are most likely to spread.

Riverdale, NJ, March 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The average American adult catches between two and four colds each year; as a whole, the United States experiences one billion colds annually, with the spread of these illnesses particularly concentrated during winter months.

Colds are more likely to spread during the winter because immune systems are less efficient during colder weather and because more people congregate indoors for longer periods, allowing airborne pathogens to spread via stagnant indoor air.
