Tesla bioweapon defense mode can keep most particles out, but not viruses

Michael J. Buchmeier, deputy director of the Pacific Southwest Regional Center for Biodefense and Emerging Diseases at the University of California, Irvine, told Gizmodo: “Now, if you’re worried about bacterial agents like anthrax or plague, a good filtering system would probably protect you.” But, he said, “0.3 micrometers won’t hold back viruses. It will hold back most bacteria, but it won’t hold back viruses. So, if you believe that all bioterrorist agents are bacteria, then you’ll get an increment of protection.”
