Many people are worried about current and possible new waves of corona infections and wonder what conditions can promote infections. According to studies, air pollution plays a central role in the severity of disease symptoms.
We now know that air pollution exacerbates the health effects of any coronavirus (not just the current SARS-CoV-2). As early as 2003, a study published in the middle of the SARS epidemic indicated that air pollution could possibly explain the differences in mortality rates, making it clear for the first time that the higher the air pollution, the greater the likelihood of contracting the disease caused by a coronavirus to die.
Since then, more and more research has shown that people who breathe dirty air throughout their lives are more susceptible to the corona virus. In the US, a recent medical study concluded that regions with more polluted air have a higher risk of dying from Covid-19. It showed that counties with higher levels of air pollution may see more hospitalizations and deaths.

Air purifiers create a feel-good climate
The air filters of the BE AIR series are designed for living and office spaces. They create clean air and remove fine dust, pollutants, incompatible components and allergens, mould, pollen, VOC and much more. The devices have HEPA filter levels, UV-C specifically for germ elimination, some even in double filter levels for living rooms, offices and group rooms. The performance values are above average and convince when creating clean air – a basis for our health!
New technology renders viruses and bacteria harmless in the air
ActivePure® air filters go one step further than conventional air cleaners. Air purifiers with this patented technology eliminate germs, viruses and bacteria in the air. And that very extensively. In this way, large rooms with many visitors and customers can be effectively protected against corona viruses and many other viruses and bacteria with just one device. This mode of action also works in smaller rooms such as treatment and sales rooms, as well as in vehicles.
