Light as a potential treatment for pandemic coronavirus infections: A perspective
"The evidence shows that violet/blue (400–470 nm) light is antimicrobial against numerous bacteria,
and that it accounts for Niels Ryberg Finsen's Nobel-winning treatment of tuberculosis. Further evidence shows that blue light inactivates several viruses, including the common flu coronavirus, and that in experimental animals, red and near infrared light reduce respiratory disorders, similar to those complications associated with coronavirus infection."
