Device would potentially neutralize coronavirus using UV light

According to Oracle Lighting, existing personal air filtration masks are designed to prevent the inhalation of viruses by trapping the particles from the incoming air in the cloth material worn on the face. However, they are not designed to disinfect or sanitize the particles. Masks can then become saturated with live viruses, pathogens, bacterium or other microorganisms attached to the fabric surfaces.

“The AIR device is composed of a small cover made of an anti-microbial polymer which is worn on the face and attached with straps similar to a traditional face mask,” Hartenstein said. “The user wears a traditional face mask (cloth mask, surgical mask, N95, etc.) over the device. A small rechargeable battery pack powers the device and can be manually turned on and off by the user. In addition to the anti-germicidal LEDs, the device also contains UV-A LEDs which provide a wider light spectrum and visible light. The visible UV-A LED functions as an indicator that the device is on and working but provides minimal anti-microbial benefits.”

Trump obviously spends plenty of time  in a tanning  bed. It's why he hasn't  come down with covid yet.

In regard to the OP, great in theory,  got a few million of them ready to go? But you really don't need them, because the virus is "going away".

And when people who wore them start suing  because of facial cancer due to UV radiation.

Cool idea if it works and is safe. 

Not exactly what Trump seemed to have been talking about before though.

The way I understand it you would put on a mask such as a N95 and the UV mask would fit over it so the UV should not be directly on the skin.  The idea is to disinfect the germs you would breath from the mask maybe I read it wrong.

If it works, great. Health care  workers were  reusing N95 masks  when they  shouldn't have.
