You need to be more reality-based. This virus does bad things to people, not all the time, but often enough to be cautious. Sorry you don’t like the truth, and I hope you and your loved ones don’t get it.

She’s wearing glasses too. Lowers risk of getting viruses through eyes, something that COVID-19 propagandists aren’t mentioning as much.

If it’s UV-C it’s not safe for human skin, but works great on non organic surfaces.

the tough part is acquiring UV laser diodes. I worked with one for a chemistry conversion process last year. I had to beg the company that makes them to loan me a diode (the size of a cheap laser pointer you can get at Dollar Tree) because the cost is $4000 - $7000 depending on wavelength and power.
Very few companies produce them. I am sure that will change now.

Even when Trump is “wrong” (because science says) he is right.

UVC has long been known to kill viruses.

UVC wands and such have been for sale here in the USA since the outbreak started.

“The old folks homes need this type of cleaning....which I think some do.”

The newer HVAC air filters can use UV which can be put anywhere basically in the HVAX systems.

But it will kill the virus on your skin and your hair and your clothes. This is why shutting down the beaches this last summer was insanity. Also if you are in a crowd in the sunlight, you are safer than sitting alone in your apartment.

Back in late March and early April, those of us, who knew about the effectiveness of Sunshine tp creating Vitamin D in our bodies to kill/eliminate virus/bacteria were saying:

“Get your 30 minutes of sunlight each day.”

Or to use a Sun-lamp!

Jun 16, 2020 — However, choosing the right sun lamp can be challenging. Doctors sometimes refer to the use of a sun lamp as “light therapy.” People with SAD ...

Too bad that we don’t have some source in the sky that emits UV rays huh?

Too simple and too drug free.

I heard one was discovered but Neil Cavuto said it was dangerous and can burn you badly.

0.1% of a billion is one million, well above the infectious dose of SARS CoV 2.

UV-A has a wavelength in the range of 315 nanometers (nm) to 400 nm. UV-B, also known as medium wave light, has a wavelength of 280-315 nm; UV-C has a wavelength of 200-280 nm...UV-B and C radiation never really reaches humans naturally because these rays are absorbed by the earth’s ozone layer. These ultraviolet wavelengths, which are what Tel Aviv researchers were examining, are especially effective in disinfection using UV-LED bulbs...

In her team’s research, they managed to kill the virus using cheaper and more readily available LED bulbs – 285 nm vs. 265 nm bulbs

Watch the price jump for these, and which all likely come from China

“What about for disinfecting sterilizing foods? Would it be bad to do that for foods?”

It would not harm the food, but would probably only kill viruses on the surface, exposed to the light. If some got mixed into the mashed potatoes for example, the food itself might shield some of the virus from exposure.

Thanks, I’m just curious about say buying groceries, then letting them sit under a light for a minute or so to kill any surface virus like on boxes, tomatoes, cantaloupe, cucumbers or whatever- instead of washing them all individually, making boxes soggy, some packages are semi permeable, so the contents woudl get soggy- but a light would prevent all that
