Answer: D

Explanation:

To meet the standards for Pollution Infiltration Management, the healthy entryway design in a retail pharmacy should be modified to increase vacuuming frequency to once a day. This adjustment ensures more effective removal of pollutants and particulate matter brought in on shoes and clothing, thus enhancing the entryway’s capability to reduce the transmission of pollutants into the indoor environment​.
