I think this is a great breakthrough for hospitals. But for consumers there should be a bit more caution. Parents always think that they should keep their children super clean etc. but the natural development of the immune system requires some exposure to pathogens. For example the hygiene hypothesis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygiene_hypothesis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygiene_hypothesis Superbugs like MRSA are predominantly found at hospitals causing nosicomial infections as well as in populations with bad hygiene like the homeless. This device is probably best used in those areas. In terms of frequent use by the general population I think we need to be a bit careful. That said I would probably get one just to say I've got a super plasma germ killer.
