EOHSI Research featured in NorthJersey.com: NJ Transit and Rutgers studying UV technology on buses to help curb spread of coronavirus

NJ Transit is embarking on a study with Rutgers University to test the effectiveness of disinfecting buses using ultraviolet light technology.
“UV has been used heavily in the medical area, in which case it’s proven very reliable as a disinfecting technique,” said Szary, who is the associate director at Rutgers University’s Center for Advanced Infrastructure and Transportation. “It’s one thing when you have one surgical operating room, you can come up with very quick procedures for that, but now you’re trying to disinfect thousands of buses.” 
Szary’s department will team up with the Rutgers Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute for the study.
