I'd be curious to see what UV lights are best for killing viruses and how long it takes. Would it have to be directly exposed or would being in the 'shadow' of UV rays also work just less effectively.

Like would it be feasible to have a brief UV sanitation 'shower' upon returning from outside to kill a large percentage of viruses/bacteria with little risk to your own health, skin/eyes, etc.?
