While there is no clear scientific research that says that air purifiers can protect you from COVID-19, people need to understand the basic utility of such purifiers. These devices are designed to clear airborne bacteria and harmful pollutants. COVID-19 is spread by a virus which is not airborne but spread by respiratory transmission. While viruses like the Coronavirus finish their journey once the droplets fall, airborne viruses can remain in the air as the droplets evaporate, or even on other dust particles in the air. The purifier will not be able to eliminate the droplets at the rate you need, to avoid infection.
