1/ Q: Does #uvlight kill the #virus? Should I buy one of those UV sanitizing devices?

A: Certain types of UV light *might* be able to help sanitize surfaces and air, but it's still early days.

HOWEVER, UV light CANNOT kill the virus if the virus is already inside of the body.
2/ Further, it's not currently deemed safe to use so-called “UV sanitizers” on the body, because of damage to the skin or eyes, and potential links to cancer. UV-C light, the most effective at killing viruses, can give you a nasty sunburn within seconds.
3/ Bottom line: Given the potential risks of #UV light, stay away from UV products marketed for personal use.

Left to the professionals, this technology may prove safe and useful for sanitizing equipment, airplanes, and buses, but this is still TBD.

@realDonaldTrump UV light is a reliable, well-studied antimicrobial technology. It works primarily by destroying the DNA inside bacteria, viruses and fungi. As stated in article. Yes I stated idea in comments. Hid names for privacy. Idea in thread.

I'm no scientist, but obviously we can't always stay outside. If we can somehow create inside UV light cleaning systems (which they do have already, but larger ones) for inside stores and schools this could help prevent future pandemics & possibly prevent #COVID19 & the #flu.
