AUSTRALIA WEEKLY COVID UPDATE — 14 November 2025 COVID activity is rising in most states: WA up (+32%; Avg 17/day in hospital), SA up (+17.2%), QLD up (+16.9%; 21 in hospital), NSW up (+13.9%) VIC down (-5%) and TAS down (-3.3%) ACT paused reporting Aged-care up (+24.8%) and 2 deaths reported

And that's just with one person in the car!

Red spikes coincide with driving through Sydney harbour tunnel on way to work and back. Usually have windows open when driving car except for in tunnels. It was only me in car yet it still fascinates me how quickly CO2 levels rise in the car with air con recirculating. #FridayAirDay #CleanTheAir

We thought it would be fun to run a campaign to share your air quality readings using #FridayAirday on Fridays! Help us create awareness of the importance of indoor/outdoor air quality by capturing an image of your CO2 monitor in whatever contexts you want to share. Some examples below. #CleanTheAir

Sharing a reading from the home office to get in on @cleanairie.bsky.social #FridayAirDay

France: "Wearing a mask is once again mandatory in Paris hospitals" "Faced with a rapid rise in respiratory infections, several hospitals in the Île-de-France region have decided to reinstate mandatory mask-wearing for healthcare workers, visitors, and patients over the age of 6." archive.li/ZeKtJ

Hot off the press! Read our report, 'Safer shared air - a critical accessibility and inclusion issue' online here 📖 https://buff.ly/40Wgb7v #CleanAir #InclusionMatters #SaferSharedAir #SaferAirProject

I am flying to Canberra tomorrow for the @saferairproject.bsky.social Conference and am just packing now. What am I missing!? - @sickandtiredaus.bsky.social

This is why I love my AirSpot. Data is so valuable. This is on the train.

Look at the difference between an open office and a small meeting room. #AirSpot

COMING SOON to your AIRSPOT! Widgets are coming soon to iOS and will be upgraded for Android! Our largest widget now gives you the ability to see how much time you have spent in the green zone (lowest CO2 PPM threshold) each day in one simple Pie Chart. Watch the video to learn more!

"Coronavirus found in samples from 96% of flights" Article published: 01 Oct 2023 "If you believe it's now safe to fly without a protective mask, you might want to think again. New research shows the COVID-19 virus has been found on nearly every flight tested." Source: archive.li/1S0tH

Featuring my AirSpot CO2 monitor @airspotrob.bsky.social

I'm attending a CAR-T symposium today aimed at cancer specialists and I'm the only person in a mask 🫠 Thankfully CO2 levels are good

@airspotrob.bsky.social if you ever need any social media pics .....here you go

Small meeting room vs larger open plan office #airspot

No disease has ever been managed well through ignorance, stupidity, selfishness nor denial. So why take that approach to #COVID19 ? #COVIDisNotOver #COVIDisAirborne #MaskUP

Mask up if you go to the NGV for the superb winter masterpieces exhibition (end Sunday) - 1500+ ppm @airspotrob.bsky.social #CleanAir (impressionists from Boston museum)

“We are told by leaders that we are the future. But when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.” Incredible speech by Violet Affleck who warned about the ongoing dangers of COVID & Long Covid, & advocated for masks and clean air at the UN today!

What Brett Sutton is saying now is nothing new. He was one of the few CHOs who openly stated that #COVIDisAirborne even in the early crisis years of the pandemic. This is an official Victorian Dept of Health video from 21 Dec, 2021.

Yep no openable windows , air con recirculating blowing everyone’s breath around

Such high levels of CO2 on busses! (3838ppm) How is this OK? No wonder passengers fall asleep - but what about the drivers? How can they stay alert - It’s double the safe level for working. Let alone the Covid risk! We were the only ones wearing masks (respies) @airspotrob.bsky.social

Grateful to Dr Alexandra Yonts @pidringer.bsky.social from Children’s National and George Washington University for joining us at Uniformed Services University Pediatric Grand Rounds today to speak on the topic of Pediatric Long Covid

Thank you, @airspotrob.bsky.social & @airspothealth.bsky.social for supporting @saferairproject.bsky.social's CEO @plumskyjam.bsky.social in her goal to attend the high-level side event "Healthy Indoor Air: A Global Call to Action" held alongside UN General Assembly on September 23, 03:30-05:30 pm.

I told him to avoid getting sick and getting next Covid. He listened. He wears a P2 mask. He uses AirSpot air monitoring @airspotrob.bsky.social all the time. He uses far uvc. He monitors the air he breathes and shares with others. He has a few Hepa machine and my favourite Ionmax aire x.

Mockup of how the Tempest Pro works with its VESA mount stacked on an Autopole using off-the-shelf hardware. Nearly silent, massive CADR in a small footprint for events and location work. It should be in the warehouse in about two weeks...

AirSpot, the indoor air quality impact startup behind the world’s smallest, most portable CO₂ (carbon dioxide) monitor, is proud to announce a grant of USD 400,000 from the Kanro philanthropic fund, to fuel next-generation IAQ solutions. airspothealth.com/a/blog/airsp...

The next Covid Awareness billboard will be something to the effect of… “Mask Up, Clean The Air, Protect the Kids, and Show We Care.” #SafeSchoolsNow If you like to help me continue my work and place some more billboards please share/donate. Every bit helps. YerAweSum! gofund.me/b398a403

Moncton NB, Canada. And I’m looking into placing some in areas of the United States as well. We will put up a billboard anywhere that one is available. #GetLoud #Covid #MaskUp #LongCovid #LongCovidKids

Covid numbers are rising and we trying to get the word out. Here are the first two billboards so far this summer and I’ll be working to keep putting them out well into the fall. If you want to help me continue the campaign any help is appreciated. gofund.me/fc751c58

I'm not affiliated with AirSpot, but they regularly summarise data on carbon dioxide and clean air in classrooms. #CogSci2025 bsky.app/profile/airs...

@maireadeire.bsky.social what wording would you like to see on the graphic It can be changed

1) Alt Text 2) 800 ppm is *not* covid safe. That is not the technical def for 800. You can STILL catch covid at 800. Even at 400. This *only* indicates CO2 levels. It is a measure of ventilation, it does *not* measure the virus. Not include variables such as physical distance. Misleading graphic

and yes I have an aranet. But it does no good if you assign it powers it does not have.

Sadly, many classrooms in #OntEd are regularly in the “cognitive function is decreased” zone on this chart. This is reflected in student attendance, focus, learning, and academic achievement markers in schools with poor ventilation. It’s well past time to #FixOurSchools.
