An-Najah News - The US Department of Homeland Security has revealed new details about its prospective study of how ultraviolet radiation destroy corona virus.

The department confirmed that the experience simulates natural sunlight with great accuracy.

The summary of this research was presented last week at the White House, despite some scholars ’calls for it to publish a more comprehensive report.

The ministry official, William Brian, told the media that the virus on a non-porous surface had shrunk by half in two minutes under sunlight.

And this is in light of a temperature between 21 and 24 degrees Celsius and a humidity of 80%, stressing that the amount of virus suspended in the air shrinked in half in 1.5 minutes when the humidity was 20% and at room temperature.

On the other hand, it appears that part of this ultraviolet radiation called UVC is especially effective in deforming the genetic material of animal and virus cells and is widely used in sterilization lamps (bactericidal UV rays), but it is not present in sunlight because the Earth's atmosphere prevents its arrival.
