The world's largest lighting company, Signify, is touting a new lightbulb they claim can eradicate 96 percent ofcoronavirus pathogenswithin three seconds of exposure. If that sounds too good to be true, know that, after running their own tests, researchers at Boston University confirm the claim.
The Dutch lighting company tested its latest technology with Boston University researchers and found that the exposure of the virus to UV light helps eradicate coronavirus. Signify hopes that the new lighting product can be used to reduce the amount of COVID-19 contagion in indoor areas, and that the lighting can be produced by other companies.
