Somehow Mz. Pelosi came up with the idea that President Trump favors people taking Clorox to get rid of COVID-19… Trump correctly favors research to find out if UV-C can destroy COVID-19. UV-C is not Clorox. The president doesn’t favor Clorox inside the body as crazy-cakes Pelosi says.
UVC radiation is a known disinfectant for air, water, and nonporous surfaces. UVC radiation has effectively been used for decades to reduce the spread of bacteria, such as tuberculosis. For this reason, UVC lamps are often called “germicidal” lamps.
UVC radiation has been shown to destroy the outer protein coating of the SARS-Coronavirus, which is a different virus from the current SARS-CoV-2 virus. The destruction ultimately leads to inactivation of the virus. (seeĀ Far-UVC light (222 nm) efficiently and safely inactivates airborne human coronavirusesExternal Link Disclaimer). UVC radiation may also be effective in inactivating the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is the virus that causes the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
