Technology to help with Covid-19?

I was thinking wouldn’t a face mask using an electrical current be an effective measure against Covid-19? Then found this:

Any other ways in which tech can help in the fight against covid19?

This is cool:

A team in Colombia is to test a ventilator made with a Raspberry Pi computer and easy-to-source parts.

The design and computer code were posted online in March by a man in California, who had no prior experience at creating medical equipment.

Marco Mascorro, a robotics engineer, said he built the ventilator because knew the machines were in high demand to treat Covid-19.
