Air conditioning units that recirculate the same air in the room or building should be turned off or with the windows open to prevent the spread of the CCP virus, health experts have said.

Dr. Shaun Fitzgerald, a fellow at the Royal Academy of Engineering, told The Telegraph newspaper there are two types of air conditioning devices: One that takes air from the outside and the others are ones that use the same air from inside the room, known as a “split” air conditioner that typically does not have ducts to the outside.
