“We are in year six of the Covid pandemic, and patients are still struggling to access safe healthcare. Hospitals removed mask mandates, didn’t bother upgrading their air quality or ventilation, and stopped requiring staff to test or isolate for Covid.

Comparing strategies for the mitigation of SARS-CoV-2 airborne infection risk in tiered auditorium venues
Comparing strategies for the mitigation of SARS-CoV-2 airborne infection risk in tiered auditorium venues

study on COVID-19 in auditoriums found displacement ventilation minimized infection risk, while natural ventilation had highest spread.

Masks, shorter events, and lower occupancy helped reduce risks.
