Oooh, smart!

...that is assuming it actually works. 🤔

That's good!
It's really neat. You can get a uv light bulb for fairly cheap to do this at home. Definitely worth looking into!

Nice! My family actually already got one for our house, but I was skeptical as to whether or not it actually works against COVID-19.

Be careful though. Don’t have anything living in the room when operating the UVC lamp. And don’t EVER look at it in operation, unless you like the feeling of sand in your eyeballs

It does kill it, even quick/mild sun exposure can damage the virus & shorten it’s life span to only about 1hr; So a full on UV exposure will almost instantly sterilize/kill it.
