COVID-19: Advantages of UV-C Air
Disinfection Using Upper Room Fixtures
Dr.Ed Nardell, professor of medicine, Harvard Medical School and Harvard
School of Public Health, discusses germicidal UV is the essential
technology for disinfecting air in rooms where transmission is
occurring. Dr. Nardell provides information on the efficacy and safety
of UV-C along with comparing the efficacy of upper room disinfection
units to free standing inbox units and UV-C in central air conditioning
and heating systems. In a pandemic a goal of 20 complete air exchanges
per hour is ideal and upper room UV-C is a cost efficient and safe way
of achieving this goal. In addition, the use of carbon dioxide monitors
to determine rebreathed air fraction and infection risk is also
discussed. Health Watch USA Meeting. Oct. 20, 2021.
