As noted in the Wikipedia article, "In April 2016, the FDA prohibited the medical use of ozone".
So, it's not just a weird alternative therapy, it's plain and simple prohibited in the US and probably in many other countries in the world.

Why anyone would think it's a good idea is beyond me. Ozone is nasty stuff, it's toxic, it kills biological organisms, it's highly reactive and corrodes many metals, it attacks some polymers. You DO NOT want to have the stuff in your body.

I would also be careful with ionizers which produce ozone when they go over a certain voltage. Heres what happened when I used a ionizer I thought to clean the air in an apartment that turned out to have very bad mold, it made it much much worse because negatively charged particles are attracted to positively charged (grounded) objects. So these particles stuck to things that were grounded,
But the attic was filled with mold. Certain tmes of the day when the air in the attic was flowing downward it would get much worse. (Not that frequently because the air usually flowed up, ) but in this case that mold produced a polysaccharide matrix thats was filled with satratoxin G and H.

After experiencing that I would suspect that an ionizer would greatly increase your chances of getting COVID-19 simply from it being in the air. If any of your neighbors had it the use of an ionizer would likely increase your risk. Usually the dust that blows in usually goes back out again, but an ionizer makes it stick to things.

Certain, the water is too toxic? NO, it depends of dosis. It is not the same a water bottle at room than a room full the water.

Well, to be fair, a lot of drugs are actually also toxic on some level.

One problem with ozone is that's it's VERY unselective. Another of course is that apart from potentially killing cells, we don't really know what the benefits would be.
