Show HN: I'm 66 and created a negative-pressure dental clinic to combat Covid19
Hello everyone,
My son loves Hacker News, so I am using his account. I love innovation and technology. With the restrictions due to Coronavirus from practicing in my clinic. I created a system that replaces the air in my office in 20 seconds. Those vacuums are also filled with UV-rods inside to kill any viruses.
The air is release below the office in a 2-3 foot basement, which is also filled with UV rods.

I've never been into software, but I can already tell why he loves this forum/space.
Thank you.
- jaclaz 6y agoI am not sure to understand. In this setup isn't the head of the dentist roughly between the patient's open mouth and the vacuum? Isn't it like helping droplets coming from the mouth of the parient to flow towards the dentist's face/mouth? (of course protected by a respiratory mask, still ...)
- somid3 6y agoNo, the head of the dentist is usually always 45-degrees from the patient. Dentists NEVER look into the mouth of a patient head on. The vacuum is head on in front of the patient, the dentist is 45-degrees off. Imagine a equi-distant triangle of patient, dentist, and vacuum.
- jaclaz 6y agoI see, thanks.
- gus_massa 6y agoClicky: https://midentista.com/coronavirus-news-english https://midentista.com/coronavirus-news-english Do you have photos of the basement with the UV roads?
- somid3 6y agoNo, it is the building's crawl space -- its is nasty with spiders and stuff. We just fitted that space with uv light rods.
