Abstract

The highly contagious and life-threatening coronavirus SARS‐CoV‐2 that has caused a global outbreak since December 2019 (COVID-19) is a beta coronavirus, which has spread rapidly and become a worldwide pandemic. To control the public spread of the virus, different types of disinfectants are used. The Taheri Consciousness Fields (TCFs) introduced by Mohammad Ali Taheri, is a novel field that is neither matter nor energy. Therefore, it is non-quantifiable and cannot be directly observed or measured. However, it is possible to demonstrate and measure the effects of these fields through standard scientific experiments. The present work aimed to compare the effect of the TCFs with a disinfectant agent (sodium hypochlorite) on the SARS-CoV-2 virus. To assess the effect of TCFs, disinfectants, and their combination, CPE (cytopathic effect) monitoring, TCID50 (50% Tissue Culture Infectious Dose), and real-time RT-PCR (Ct value) methods were applied. The results showed a reduction or elimination of the live viruses in the groups treated with sodium hypochlorite and TCFs simultaneously. Although the TCFs could decrease the infectivity of the virus, there was still the infectivity potential of the viruses remained. It seems that the use of the TCFs along with disinfectants can strengthen and enhance the effect of antiseptic compounds. Based on the findings, further investigations are recommended in order to better understand the effects of the TCFs on viruses.
