Title or short description: Suggestion for killing the virus

Comments or notes about this file: Ultra violet light kills viruses. Just an idea which I think is worth pursuing: why not develop a thin tube with UV light in it. The lower it in the bronchi - with the light on - to kill of at least a sizeable portion of the infection.
