Effective ultraviolet C light disinfection of respirators demonstrated in challenges with Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores and SARS-CoV-2 virus
BACKGROUND: The global COVID-19 pandemic, accompanied by spikes in the number of patients in hospitals, required substantial amounts of respiratory protective devices (respirators), thereby causing shortages. Disinfection of used respirators by applying ultraviolet C (UVC) light may enable safe reus...
