There’s reason to be skeptical of any internet post claiming something kills the coronavirus.
Facebook in particular can be a deluge of home remedies that range from unproven to downright dangerous.
So you’d be forgiven for raising your eyebrows if you came across an Indianapolis Monthly article shared widely on Facebook saying that researchers have found a “fabric that kills coronaviruses.”
But this claim has science behind it — preliminary though it may be. Researchers discovered that low-level electric fields can render the coronavirus unable to infect a host after just a minute of exposure to the field.
Here’s what we know about this product.
The concept — called electroceutical fabric — was developed several years ago by Chandan Sen, now the director of the Indiana Center for Regenerative Medicine and Engineering at the Indiana University School of Medicine. While working at Ohio State University in 2017, he created an electrically based antimicrobial wound dressing that has been approved by the FDA and sold by Vomaris under the name Procella.
