For Covid19?
It occurs to me that it shouldn't be to hard to come up with something better than a homemade surgical mask for airborne viruses.
How about a low cost "moon suit"?
Idea - use a lithium ion battery - USB cord chargable - drawing air through a chest mounted filter - with a computer fan - which would inflate a plastic bag over the head?
The trick would be getting enough airflow that CO2 buildup would not be a problem. While shortening use time (of not using a regulated on demand system) the simplicity of the unit would make them much more affordable - easily under $100.
The filter would have to be foam - or other material - that could be washed out with disinfectant, dried, then re-used. A spray of some sort - would be good to make the virus stick better to the filter.
You would make the most money on the filter treating spray.
Just name it after me..
