    so what you’re saying is that by attempting to fix one problem, they ended up fixing another?

      Unintended consequences are not always a bad thing. I wear a mask now through much of my work day. My home, office, and where I workout all have HEPA Filters now. I monitor the AQI, and if it’s a ‘shitty air day’ I will either do stuff inside until it clears up, or wear a mask outside. The problem we are definitely not solving is the fact of air pollution. There are mountains to the south of me, and it used to be a rare day when the air in between was hazy. Now it’s a rare day when the air is not hazy.
