  1. Dear Ms Brenner and Doctor Gottlieb, I have an idea about how to get kids back in school, and get people back to work, and get the American economy and the world economy on its feet, and especially to win the battle against Covid-19 and future pathogens or viruses that may be weaponized and used against your country or any country. Dr Gottlib, I believe that to win the Coronavirus pandemic in your country and around the world we need to fight the Coronavirus on its own territory: in the air we breathe in confined spaces. instead of passively letting it come into our bodies to attack our immune systems, we must take the battle to where it exists, and that is in the air all of us breathe. We can see someone can cough and for meters and meters they can send out infectious virus droplets. I think the Covid-19 is a wake-up call to humanity for use to realize that from now on, we must scrubb the air free of infectious viruses, pathogens and pollens and pollutants. I am an inventor. Here is my assessment of how to control the Covid-19 virus and all future infectious viruses that this way come. Up until now we have gone after the virus passively. We wear masks, gloves, face shields, eye protection, in other words we wait for it to get to us first. Next, we’re trying to come up with a vaccine which will hopefully protect us. What I believe we need to do now is to use reverse strategy and go after the Coronavirus proactively where it lives: in the air. We can do this with air scrubbers, air processors i.e. air cleaners adjusted to bake, freeze, filter and finally incapacitate the virus from existing in its molecular form. We must remove it out of the air we breathe. We could do this in every place where people congregate; every classroom could have an air scrubber with a virus indicator to show it was safe for a teacher to give a lesson. There would be a gauge on the apparatus to show the level of the virus in the air; we must realize that we cannot go on living like slaves to a Coronavirus by only trying to protect ourselves from it. It has shown over and over again that it can get through our defenses. I believe we have the savoir faire to knock out a device that can do all of the things I have said. The police use breathalyzers to analyses the alcohol content in someone’s breath, if we could get a Coronavirus analyzer that shows whether the Covid-19 virus is in a person’s system by breath analysis, it could save a lot of time---and save lives. It could be used at the door of a restaurant to test everyone’s breath coming into the restaurant. On each table in the restaurant, a portable air-scrubber could be placed to cleanse the air of the people talking at each table. People could wake up in the morning and test themselves with the virus-breathalyzer and if they were positive, they could take immediate action. I haven’t invented these apparatuses except in my mind, but the technology has been around for decades. I repeat: the Covid-19 pandemic is a wake-up call for us to treat the air we breathe like something that needs to be baked, frozen, filtered... whatever it takes to send it back in our homes and schools and offices and places of work virus free. This technology is a win/win strategy to keep us safe.
