UVC and Far UVC ultraviolet light Kills up to 99.999% of all viruses in about 20 mins in the air and on the surfaces subjected to direct exposure. It has been proven to kill Covid-19. Government must take action now to manufacture and introduce UVC sterilisation in shops,pubs,offices,schools.

Additional Information

Air droplets are main source of infection and UVC is the only viable method for killing coronavirus in the air. Far UVC is inherently safe and UVC can be used safely with caution too.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Ensuring that public spaces are clean and safe is a matter for individual local authorities, and private property is a matter for the owners or tenants of that property, not the Government or Parliament.

We could accept a petition calling for funding for research into different methods, if this is something you would like to see happen.
