Ingraham was talking about this with someone tonight. Basically you install a UV light or two up near the ceiling and have a ceiling fan sucking air upwards. It will kill any virus within 20 seconds or less. I’m actually thinking about converting a closet for this. Just step in for 20 seconds and your virus free.

1st America the Beautiful quarters of 2020 features a fruit bat mother and her pup

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3838334/posts

Keep an eye out for a shiny new quarter with a raised image of fruit bats and be careful not to let the coin fly out of your wallet or pocket.

As part of the U.S. Mint's America the Beautiful Quarters Program, the new National Parks quarter dollar celebrates American Samoa and on the relief features a mother fruit bat and her pup hanging upside down.

But no recipe...

Not a really good idea. Enough UV to do that for you
effectively, all over, in 20 seconds, would be really harsh
on your skin, your skin's DNA, and your eyes. Not just
talking sunburn here.

I actually own a UV-C meter that I've used to test a number
of UV-C sterilization wands, Lamps, boxes, LEDs and
protective eye wear, etc.

It turns out that I have devices that would take between
as little as 2 seconds (per side) to effectively sterilize
a mask, to as much as 10 minutes.
I also have others that would take much longer.

One of the slickest looking rechargeable pocket UVC LED wands
turned out to only emit about 40 micro-watts of 253.7
nanometer UVC, at about 1/2" distance. Since we would
like about 40 mili-watt seconds cumulative UV-C irradiation
to do a 99.9+% job on the germs, I'd need to hold that
device over every half inch of both sides of that mask
for 25 seconds per half inch.

Now, you CAN get good UVC germ killer lamps to add into
heating or air conditioning systems, and you can also
get stand alone air filters that use UVC and even UVC
activated catalytic filters to do a job on germs in your
airspace. Consider HEPA 13 (HyperHEPA) hospital grade
filtration if you plan to capture something as small as
a virus and not just frazzle it with some UV.

Clothes, groceries, and stuff can also be sterilized
ozone, with proper precautions. (If you're pulling out
all the stops to protect an at risk person, for instance.)

Interestingly we take a small, handheld UV light apparatus with us whenever we travel to ensure our hotel rooms are clean. It has also worked to rid a houseplant of a white fungus like disease. I have been laughed at but it wasn’t the first or last time.
