Antigua Observer Newspaper
- Advertisement -By Deslyn A JosephFormer Chief Health Inspector and current Consultant in Environmental and Public Health, Lionel Michael, has raised urgent concerns about mold infestations in government buildings and the wider implications for worker health and safety.
“The easy fix does not work,” Michael said, while speaking on Observer Media about the state of indoor environmental conditions.
He warned that many government offices suffer from poor air circulation due to sealed windows, locked doors, and the mistaken belief that air conditioning systems provide proper ventilation.
“Air conditioning is not ventilation,” he emphasized.
Mold is not just a maintenance issue — it’s a public health issue.”About The Author
