With any virus or bacteria it is the bacterial-saturation/virus-load that determines if it is a problem or not, below a certain point the immune system will defeat any bacteria or virus, its only when it gets overwhelmed that there is a problem.
How it is killed doesn't really matter as long as it doesn't harm the body and focusing on where the likely largest concentration is likely to be found is just the most efficient way to go about it, what matters is getting the saturation/load down sufficiently for the immune system to deal with the remainder.
Probably quite a lot that can be cured by variations of this, anything from UV blood dialysis and topical application of UV to simple chemical treatments that the human body can handle but that the virus/bacteria can not(a dialysis machine where the blood is passed/bubbled through a gas that kills whatever the problem is but that doesn't bind with the blood itself and doesn't follow it out of the dialysis machine may also be a viable option...)
UV treatment becoming an integrated part of any Intubation may actually save a lot of lives through simply reducing post surgery/intubation infections, same goes for UV dialysis...
Some thinking/ speculating out loud here. Have read that a cold/flu virus takes up headquarters in your nasal area so keeping it flushed with saline solution is very important. Longwave UVA lights are used to view urine trails and some mineral specimens. UVA is found in sunshine and is not dangerous. (Short wave UVB on the other hand can sunburn your eyeballs). So does it follow that I can shine my UVA light up my nose for 20 minutes a day and cure colds/flu/covid or at least lower the quantity of virus similar to the saline flush? If this is true, I can see small specialty UVA lights to place in one's nose becoming a hot item in winter.

Something similar could work wonders on strep-throat and a oral/dental hygiene UV mouthpiece could replace mouthwash.....
