No. Ozone (3 oxygen atoms) is unstable, combining with just about everything else on Earth. Contrary to those commercials, ozone is bad for you. Many folks reports stuffy noses and headaches if they are around an ozone source. Ozone is a good thing only in the stratosphere, where there is nothing for it to combine with and destroy. Ozone can be good for killing all living things in a close car - without humans inside - to get rid of an odor, but that is about it.
Ozone is both good and bad for us, depending on where it if found. Up high it is good.
The damage is done, but it is not permanent. Ozone is constantly being formed when UV rays split oxygen molecules. The holes have been observed to be shrinking and will continue to do if we can cut down on pollutants that destroy the ozone layer. The ozone layer is actually constantly breaking down and reforming.

Not true. Ozone in the lower atmosphere combines with cars exhaust to create smog.
The ozone needs to be raised quickly into to the upper atmosphere as it does during thunder storms.
Imagine a tanker truck filled with liquid ozone. The tank has special nozzles that will open when a tornado is right on top of it. The tornado sucks up the O3 and blasts it into the upper atmosphere, the thunder head does the rest. Imagine 100 tanks buried all over "Tornado Alley" with multiple pipes and nozzles.

The manufacturer of Ionic Breeze are now advertising a design change that removes O3 from the air passing through it.
