Founder Speaks-
"At the outset, people are still to figure out virus problem needs attention even beyond the current pandemic. Over a billion people get Flu every year and up to 650,000 die of complications related to it. Adenovirus caused most respiratory and throat disorders in growing children. Such viral infections and flus already cost 100s of billions of dollars in medical costs, not to mention the loss made due to productivity. The future pandemics are expected to be even worse. Hence, we need to think in terms of broader virus protection and not only protection from the pandemic. Today it is as critical to have this device in our offices, schools, hospitals, public places and organizations, as it is to have a water purifier. Water purifiers kill pathogens in water and Shycocan neutralizes pathogens in air. Air being more ubiquitous than water the need is even more."
