The above is interesting reading, but does not contain any research related to the current virus. Also, be sure to read "Harmful effects" in the article.

As of now, if anyone has current research pro/con related to UV and the Corona Virus from any reputable research agency it is welcomed.

One of many studies on using UV to decontaminate the limited supply of N95 masks for reuse.

Note: There are probably forum members who have tested positive, or have relatives and/or friends that have tested positive; some may even be, or have, suffered from the virus itself. Keeping that in mind, it is important what is posted here is as reliable as humanly possible. Please keep that in mind. This is far from being over and new information is being gleaned from the patients and research daily. We all have a responsibility to exercise caution in what we read, repeat, and post.

Thank you to those mindful of the need to post responsibly.

Untreated masks do one thing well

Muffle the explosive ejection of a cough or sneeze. Limiting travel of droplets.

To believe they filter inspiration is like believing a cyclone fence would stop a snake.

35 years in the Pharmaceutical filtration (sterile and Ultrafiltration) and water filtration field.....What MEXICOWANDERER says is true. Masks just keep us from spitting on each other. It don't matter how good a filter is, it is the seal that matters.

California is reporting a 0.03% Death rate for Coronavirus that mirrors a normal flu season.

What is the source of the 0.03% death rate and how was it calculated? (Perhaps Drs Dan Erickson and Artin Massihi from Bakersfield; read this)

658 influenza caused deaths in CA during 2019- 2020 flu season
California Influenza Surveillance Program

1,755 Covid-19 caused deaths in CA up through April 26, 2020 (and still counting)
California Department of Public Health

The CA Public Health posted numbers indicate Covid-19 is already 2.7x more deadly than this year’s seasonal flu and still getting worse.

From the instant hand sanitizer dries it means zero alcohol to sterilize.

Google a surgeon's MANDATORY scrub.

HIBICLENS

It works and stays working. Been in use for decades.

This is recommended by every government and private industry. There is no question of its efficacy.

We ask you NOT post any sources promoting the use of colloidal-silver as effective against the virus. No legitimate medical sources have been found advocating it's use. Thank you.

Has NYC or anywhere else posted data more than a flattening of cases? A multi week decline? World of difference between a plateau and declintion.

Lots of USA states are planning to reopen soon. Keep a sharp eye on reports starting three weeks after reopening.

NYT has pretty good graphs for all of the states, and yes, New York shows a decline in both new cases and mortality:
