Abstract
Emergence of zoonotic-human pathogens is proven to be a lethal threat to public health, and RNA virus including influenza viruses, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus, middle east respiratory syndrome coronavirus, and COVID-19, plays a pivotal role. As those viruses as airborne microorganisms spread mainly by tiny airborne particles, it is important to de-active those airborne particles before their entry into human bodies. In this study, we investigated the effect of far infrared (FIR) radiation on inhibition of airborne microorganisms. The result confirmed that double stand DNA from airborne microorganisms containing RNA viruses was stable under mild FIR radiation. However, single strand RNA from them was found to be sensitive to FIR radiation, indicating that RNA virus in airborne particles is instable under FIR radiation. Based on this observation, two models on usage of FIR radiation to prevent RNA virus transmission by air and cure RNA virus infection were proposed. Then, this study suggests that FIR radiation has the potential to be a cheap, convenient, and efficient method in clinic to treat RNA virus.

Summary
As traditional immune methods take a long period to prevent and cure RNA virus infection, new convenient ways that can be used immediately in clinic are eagerly needed. The FIR fan generates FIR light to heat the air, which is a type of electromagnetic radiation. As modern FIR fans efficiently deliver FIR radiation, which makes them safe and effective for warming, physical health, stress, fatigue and ordinary usage [14]. Currently if FIR radiation could induce degeneration of single strand RNA in airborne microorganisms is largely elusive. The result showed that single strand RNA from them was found to be sensitive to FIR radiation, which implies that FIR radiation is potential to be a convenient way that can be used immediately in clinic to treat RNA virus infection
