All ventilation systems are configured to provide maximum intake of air from outside.
Airing rooms is important as it reduces the number of infectious aerosols in the air. Simple actions like opening windows regularly throughout the day, especially when you share a space with others, and making sure that mechanical ventilation systems and kitchen and bathroom extractor fans are used correctly, will reduce your risk.
Some catering services and information facilities have been adjusted to cope with changes in campus demand and to incorporate COVID-secure measures. See the Campus safety and facilities pages for up to date information.
