When you think of disinfecting a space, what comes to mind? Wipes? Gels? Sprays? Maybe air purifiers or effective HVAC systems? All of these are great defenses against viruses and bacteria, but one thing has been missing from the toolkit…

UV light is everywhere when you walk outside in fact so strong that people get cancer from it
I find it curious that Ms Barber was pessimistic about UV being ebiqutous with disinfection. I don't see why having a device in your house the pulls air from the room and pass it by a UV light would be an issue. I didn't hear anything in this doc that would suggest there would be a downside. If the light is contained in a seal device there is no light exposure. The O3 issue while is present, doesn't seem to be an issue. The fact that no one knows how much O3 is created by UV light seems intentionally ignorant. It would be simple to fill a know vessel volume with standard room air, measure the O3, expose it to UV the remeasure the O3. Am I missing something?? Run that experiment several times, different size vessels, stagnant vs moving air. Seriously shouldn't there already be a standard metric for UV generated O3. Also, if UV creates a toxic amount of O3 why isn't the sun turning our atmosphere toxic with O3?? I am not saying conspiracy because I rather follow facts than guess. For me, something isn't adding up here.
Really fascinating to hear about this 🫶 thanks for sharing it with everyone 🍀
1:50 why didn't they use this technique during the covid pandemic…
Or any Flu season in general..
Can keep the room warm and cozy and everybody stays sound…
Can you sell it perpetually to people?
No?
Then its not the solution!

Oh wow !!! Something new !!! Viruses are alive and can be killed !! 😂 NOT !!!!
Have we learned nothing from using anti-viral and bacterial cleaning products? They ALL cause damage to us in various different ways. If one thing that kills viruses and bacteria also harms us, it's like 99% likely that anything else will ultimately be found to do the same if directly used on us.
It's just that we haven't studied Far-UV or whatever enough to see the damage it does.
Like seriously, they only looked at it causing cancers in mice? What about the other 1000's of issues it can cause?
Also, you know manufactures are gonna release subpar bulbs that release more UV then they are supposed to and cause more damage that way. .. and that these bulbs will be like 80% of what people buy.
Just stick to the ceiling UV treatments. It's enough to lower the over all presence of bacteria and viruses in the room to make a difference.
"even though they operate at a low wavelength, it still isnt great to directly blast humans with it day in and day out."
how does that make any sense? lower wavelengths have higher energy?
How about putting them inside air conditioners, where the heat exchange takes place. That way people won't get exposed and the flow is probably not slow enough for ozone to be created. Plus it'd probably be cheaper than air filters.
A bigger question is why the doctors and hospitals not using it to treat diseases and infections… of course it would interfere with the J.D. Rockefeller model to make healthcare costly as possible… That's why the American Medical Association ( AMA ) was created to us dry. Yon can thank him and J. P. Morgan for that creation!!!😢😢😢😢😢😢
U MEAN PLANDEMC
Sunlight.
You can have far UV lights turn on before/after school/workplace while people are not there. to sterilize the surfaces more effectively and economically than chemical / manual cleaning
Because it also kills every form of life. 'Why not spray bleach everywhere?' is the same question.
Huh
And now I know how that little box to disinfect my mobile and watch works.
You could just go outside in the sun. Lol.
Why isn't it everywhere? Ummm, it is. Literally outside…LOL
Can it destroy endocrine disrupting chemicals?
i have a UV handheld tube light which I use to disinfect my sofa and curtains
If we make the surrounding air so purified and clean of pathogens for prolonged periods, wont that weaken our immune system?
Beer solves all my problems
Animal testing is so disgusting!
"The sun causes cancer" the great lie of our age.
I immediately got an ad for some UV light disinfectant product called ‘UVlizer’ lol
To actually answer the question: because electron beam sterilization is both more effective and works through packages. Maybe don't use it on a human, though.
