No Bioweapon Defense Mode in 3/Y - HEPA Filter

[bpon89]

So with all the COVID-19 and California wildfires, a friend with a model X asked me if my Y had the Bioweapon Defense Mode? I was like, bioweapon what? I guess it doesn't come in the 3/Y but you can just use a HEPA filter. Just thought it was an interesting name for it and wanted to share. I see a few options for a HEPA filter online below, anyone change theirs out?

Oh, my friend just said there's actually a button for it in the S/X.

I also thought that the S/X created negative pressure in the cabin in addition to just HEPA filters.

You can’t just toss a HEPA filter in the 3/Y and get the same effect.

Yea, it must be something more than just the filter to be called Bioweapon Defense Mode.
