Has anyone from Vox has ever... Been outside before?

Here's are some fun UV facts:
Too much ultraviolet radiation (UV) from sunlight is dangerous.
Nearly half of UV radiation is received between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when the sun’s rays are the strongest.
Even on a cloudy day, you can be sunburned by UV radiation.

Every hospital I've been to has these lamps in various places in the hallways like on the way into the ICU. Stop your ignorant fear mongering.

"Oh, I skimmed the video, but I don't trust science, so I'm going to question the intelligence of everyone involved with this website because I don't believe anyone else but me knows anything about UV light. Here are some irrelevant facts..."

Willfully ignorant people like you make me so angry. Especially when they spread their ignorant horseshit like they're so fucking smart. As if we don't ALL know about the dangers of long exposure to sunlight. Appropriate UV lamps for killing viruses do not equal sunlight!

Willfully ignorant? You're sure reading a lot into OP's reply that he didn't say.

Oh, I skimmed the video, but I don't trust science.

Ok buddy. You go on with your little fantasy argument you've got going here. Have fun.

Dude, you made the comment. Your words are all the evidence I need.

Theres a new thing where you distinguish different kinds of UV radiation, apparently some are not that dangerous to humans but would still be effective against bacteria.

However I cannot say if its legit or not since I didn't read much around it just saying this for awareness.

Oh I know. I skimmed the video a little, it just sounds like one of those hot new things someone with investment money sent to them so they "reported" on it.

It also helps breakdown materials outside.
