Face masks made from fabric IU scientist developed could kill the coronavirus

 

Face masks made of a new fabric developed by an Indiana University scientist could do more than simply block the coronavirus from infecting the wearer. These masks could actually kill the germs.

 

Known as electroceutical fabric, the material employs microcell batteries to create an electrical field that essentially disarms the virus and prevents it from infecting a person. Without a host, the virus will die.
