#6Not surprising? HEPA filters have been known to be able to filter viruses for some time; it's maybe the main reason they were invented? Not sure about that though.

Not entirely. AIDS is only the name for the final stage of the disease, when your immune system is rendered totally unable to defend your body. It usually takes years from an HIV infection until AIDS develops. In the first viremic phase of HIV you can even have fever but often people don't notice it or put it off as some innocent cold. COVID-19 however is used however to refer to all stages and forms of the disease.

Have you looked at the prices of HEPA filter machines?
Check out the cost of IQAir units.

The disease that develops after being infected is called COVID-19 which means Corona Virus Disease (first seen in 20)19. The virus that causes it is SARS-CoV-2, the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrom Corona Virus 2, which is one of many coronaviruses. The 2 is there because there was an earlier coronavirus caused disease (SARS) in 2002 for which the pathogen was called SARS-CoV(-1).

> which is one of many coronaviruses.
There's only like 7 coronaviruses that have been discovered to infect a human. Three of which are SARS, MERS, and COVID19.
Its pretty novel, all else considered.
