> A whole room UV simulation demonstrated a far UV-C lamp (207-222 nm) could further reduce SARS-CoV-2 by 50-85% compared to ventilation alone and with both far UV-C and high ventilation the SARS-CoV-2 viral count was reduced by 90% in 6 minutes and 99% in 11.5 minutes Footnote 5.
I wonder if this is something that I could add to my pre-existing home ventilation system; no concerns at all about skin exposure (which doesn't seem to be an actual issue based on this Boeing paper), and it shouldn't be so hard.
* I found this (https://faruv.com/) but I don't know how reliable they are.
That said, if this really was that effective, I don't understand how viruses and bacteria are able to survive outside with our fusion-powered UV ray generator in the sky.
-edit- * I feel dumb, here it is at the end of the summary. Looks like Boeing is working w/ faruv.
> Boeing recently entered into patent and technology licenses with Healthe® Inc. and FarUV Technologies. Under these licenses, both companies will produce and distribute a commercial Far-UV 222 nm mobile wand, helping airlines and potentially others reduce the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
