Study without interfering with activity
The studies are carried out with the presence of the minors or young people themselves in the usual conditions of the normal development of their activity, maintaining the habits and protocols of ventilation and mobility. In this way, it is possible to know the reality of the air in the classrooms and spaces analyzed.
From the first moment of the pandemic, the Alovera City Council works to assess all the possibilities that make it possible to stop contagions in the municipality and, at the same time, have safer spaces. Scientific studies affirm the correlation between spaces with high levels of CO2 derived from ventilation problems and the risks of airborne transmission, the known aerosols, as a means of contagion of the disease.
One of the spaces where the council has shown the most interest in preparing and generating the best conditions are those where the smallest attend classes or receive care, such as nursery schools.
