Former Governor Rick Perry says schools across Texas are starting to use an air filtration system that's been proven to remove more molecules and bacteria than even "HEPA" air filters. Perry says "Integrated Viral Protection" air filters can add an extra layer of protection.

He says more than 150 schools have already started using the filters, but Perry also has a role with the company that makes the filters. He would not answer questions about what that role is. The filters themselves have won the endorsement of the Texas Hospital Association.
