How should a school respond if parents interpret installation as proof that illness cannot spread?

How should a school respond if parents interpret installation as proof that illness cannot spread?

Installation is not proof that illness cannot spread: C-POLAR has published no clinical study, and no laboratory result it publishes has been shown to produce a real-world health outcome.

The company's position is that the filter is intended to destroy the viruses, bacteria and fungal spores it captures, and that it destroys them on direct contact with the positive electric charge, by physical means, and only while the organism is captured by the positive electric charge. The label for the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter states: “This filter treats the air that passes through it. It is not a medical device and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease. It works alongside ventilation and cleaning, not in place of them.” The Terms of Use state: “A laboratory reduction in a virus, bacterium, fungus, particle, or other endpoint does not establish a clinical benefit, fewer infections, disease prevention or treatment, or improved health.”
