Are UV disinfection lamps useful? Are UVC disinfection lamps useful?

TSIM SHA TSUI, Hong Kong - Feb. 18, 2021 - PRLog -- It is known that sunlight contains three types of ultraviolet light (UVA, UVB and UVC), among which short-wave ultraviolet (UVC) can kill virus molecules and even cause harm to the human body. However, the earth's ozone layer can effectively block UVC to prevent direct harm to us fortunately. Humans developed UVC for sterilization at the end of 19^th century. UVC is widely used in daily sterilization procedures in hospitals, factories and vehicles. UVC can be used to disinfect water, remove chlorine and other chemicals and kill parasites. Because UVC can destroy the coronavirus disease without adding chemicals, the secondary pollution is avoided after using UVC. We are increasingly using portable ultraviolet disinfection sticks (https://www.etoptechltd.com/led-portable-uvc-lamp-led-disinfection-lights-uvc-cleaning-rod.html) in our lives because of this terrible COVID-19. The portable UV disinfection stick can be placed in a handbag, rucksack or even pants pocket because of its small size. Before touching the object with your hands directly, you may take out the ultraviolet disinfection stick and irradiate it to help kill bacteria and viruses on the object. The sterilization rate of the disinfection stick is 99.9%. UVC can destroy the molecular structure of bacteria, viruses and molds, making them dead and unable to regenerate. With the safety switch function, once the ultraviolet light is sensed upwards, it will automatically turn off the light to improve safety.
Just as a coin has two sides. Although UV disinfection does not contain chemical ingredients and will not cause secondary pollution or injury, E-Top (https://www.etoptechltd.com/products.html) also takes this opportunity to remind users of disinfection sticks to pay attention to the following things to avoid injury due to misuse:
