About the solution
Because of the rapid spreading of the coronavirus infection, there is a worldwide shortage of personal protective gear. Usually, protective gears should be used one time only, but Erik is proposing a sterilization box to reuse the equipment until production steps up again.
The European Union recommends the use of UV-C light for sterilization. A sterilization box can be built at home for your protective gears and objects.
Some precautions are necessary, because UV-C light causes skin cancer, Erik recommends to always close the lid of the box before turning on the UV-C light.
