Air purifiers purchased during the pandemic to zap airborne coronavirus particles can also help reduce the amount of allergens and other irritants linked to asthma and other respiratory diseases. However, scientists are still working to understand how to measure their effectiveness on a broad scale.

The article from WLWT discusses the benefits of using air purifiers to enhance indoor air quality, particularly in light of increased time spent indoors due to events like the global health crisis. It highlights how air purifiers can remove pollutants, allergens, and other harmful particles from the air, which is especially beneficial for individuals with respiratory issues or allergies. The piece also mentions the rise in popularity of air purifiers due to concerns over air quality from wildfires, pollution, and viruses. Experts suggest looking for air purifiers with HEPA filters for the best results, and the article provides tips on selecting the right air purifier based on room size, filtration technology, and maintenance requirements. Additionally, it notes that while air purifiers are helpful, they should be part of a broader strategy to improve indoor air quality, including proper ventilation and reducing sources of pollution.
