       Should You Use a Humidifier to Prevent COVID-19 or Flu? What if 
       you have asthma? What about dehumidifiers?

       Check the humidity in your room...Think about humidity
       levels....(it certainly affects the Masked Man's guitars hanging
       in his room so humidity levels probably affects health and
       comfort as well)
       When it is  winter season, and people using various heating
       devices check the humidity in your home
       When it is summer the air conditioner can create dry air as
       well...
       decide for yourselves the pros and cons of using a humidifier or
       dehumidifier and when its best for you
       Here's just a couple articles to get ya thinking about it
       ( & please feel free to reply to add more studies about
       humidifiers and dehumidifier studies in this thread)...
       SUMMARY:
       Airborne virus particles travel well in dry air. Here’s how
       using a humidifier can help.
       ...another strategy that can help make our air safer to breathe:
       humidifying. You might not immediately associate moist air with
       clean air, but a large body of evidence suggests that more humid
       air—in the range of about 40 to 60 percent humidity—can help cut
       down on airborne virus transmission.

       SUMMARY:
       This device may reduce viruses at home —
       Humidifiers add moisture that’s like a “heavy blanket” that
       brings cold, flu and other viruses to the ground, away from
       noses and mouths.
