Canadian Researchers Develop New Polymer Coating For Clothes That May Keep COVID-19, Bacteria at bay

"When you're walking into a hospital, you want to know that pillow you're putting your head onto is clean," said lead author Taylor Wright, a doctoral student in the department of chemistry at the University of British Columbia (UBC).
