NYC MTA Transportation Eradicating COVID-19 With Ultraviolet Technology
The MTA has actualized an exceptional cleaning framework to sterilize NYC commuting systems, and now there is some hard verification they will kill COVID-19 germs.
In a question and answer session this evening, May 19, the MTA reported they would dispatch the first-ever UVC (Ultraviolet-C) experimental run program to murder COVID-19 on open transportation.

The MTA has been working with Dr. David J. Brenner, the Director of the Center for Radiological Research at Columbia University, since March to test the adequacy of UV innovation inside the metro. Also, presently Dr. Brenner has demonstrated (inside a lab) that UVC does in truth effectively slaughter the infection that causes COVID-19.
“To our knowledge,” Foye stated, “This is the first reported test of this kind. Period.”
He said the program will be directed in two stages. Initial, 150 of the UV lights will be utilized more than a little while on trams, transports, stations, and in representative offices. At that point, Phase 2 will include extending to the Long Island Railroad and Metro North.
Tech startup PURO Lighting is giving the lights, which are from a scaled down “mobile series” so they can be handily utilized inside the tram vehicles.
