An apparatus for reducing facial exposure to airborne germs a UV-C light generator housed within a support housing and a UV-C output array mounted on headgear in an orientation to bathe a face of a person wearing the headgear with UV-C light. A fibre optic cable connects the UV-C generator with the UV-C output array, such that UV-C light generated by the UV-C light generator passes through the fibre optic cable to the UV-C output array.

Ear compression apparatus including an ear compression band having a substantially circular shape. The ear compression band can have a circumferential length and a compression band operably coupled with at least one-half (½) of the circumferential length of the ear compression band. The compression band can be coupled with less than nineteen-twentieths ( 19/20) of the circumferential length of the ear compression band, thereby forming a front portion of the circumferential length not having a compression band coupled therewith.

Embodiments of particle protection headwear apparatuses and use thereof are detailed herein. In general, embodiments of the present invention include a shield and a shroud which couple to, or are partially or wholly integral with, a hat. The shield extends downwardly from the hat and is typically embodied as part of the hat. Further, the shield is designed for a user to be able to look through it. The shroud is coupled to and extends downwardly from the shield and the hat. The shroud extends entirely around a perimeter of the hat to form a breathable barrier between particles and the user's head. The shroud may be removeable from the shield and washable.

A personal sanitizing device includes an eyewear frame and one or more UV-C sources attached to a lower edge of the eyewear frame for directing UV-C energy in a downward direction from the eyewear frame. The one or more UV-C sources are configured for sanitizing air in proximity of a mouth and/or a nose of a wearer of the personal sanitizing device. The personal sanitizing device also includes a battery configured for powering the one or more UV-C sources.

A wearable head article for controlling light incident on the skin, including a filter layer for allowing light to pass through over a treatment area of the head, wherein the filer layer includes material that controls the wavelengths that pass through, and a protective layer for reducing skin exposure to at least one of harmful light and non-beneficial light.

Disclosed is a high-temperature virus-killing mask, including a sunhat, a heating component and a mask body. A high-temperature microtube with a resistance wire is arranged in the sunhat. The resistance wire may be energized to generate heat to enable the temperature in the high-temperature microtube to rise up to about 200° C., so that, when a user inhales air, the NCP in air flowing through the high-temperature microtube will be killed by the high temperature.

Wearable Far-Ultra Violet C (Far-UVC) head article with components thereof and other accessories is provided to protect the wearer from intrusion of viruses and micro-organism. The head article is integrated with Far-UVC photons on a brim that project wavelengths of about 222 nm safely in front of the face to protect against viruses. The head article would be a baseball type cap with Far-UVC photons attached in a channel perpendicular to the axis on the brim on a fore edge underneath a surface thereof projecting the wavelength of sterilizing rays in front of the face while protecting the skin and eyes.
