Question from Jesse
Curious if you could post thoughts on non toxic Coronavirus related home cleaning. Specifically, I’ve read conflicting reports about in home UVC air sanitizers and wands (particularly if they are safe to use around people, pets, kids).
Lisa’s Answer
The concerns around the technology is that they can cause harm to skin and eyes (much like sun damage) as well as emit dangerous ozone. Until there is research that shows definitively that these devices are safe, I would not use them. Additionally, they are not part of the recommended protocol by the EPA because the EPA has not evaluated them for effectiveness against the novel coronavirus.
