Ultra-Violet light is proven to kill viruses in the air like the COVID19 viruses and other variants (more info here: https://www.msn.com/en-in/news/india/uv-light-technology-has-potential-to-reduce-covid-19-transmission-indoors/ar-AAObj5i). They can be found in sunlight, which is why it's good to have natural light in your rooms. But, what about the winter season, or rainy seasons? Or, hospital emergency rooms? There is no sunlight in those buildings.

Here is an idea. Why not insert a UV lamp inside air conditioners? Aircon sucks air inside the room, then viruses are killed inside the aircon with UV light. This eliminates the harm that UV lights can cause in direct contact with our eyes and skin because it is running inside the aircon, and it doubles as cooling the air.

Honestly, I saw this type of technology on a TV ad by LG electronics, which sells aircon with this sort of thing. However, I am not sure if it is the same UV light they use in their product.

Anyway, this kind of product is something to consider because of its effectiveness and simplicity. It should be widely used indoors and transportation like cars and buses.

So, what do you think? Is this a viable solution to our pandemic problem that could help in our battle with COVID19?
