We are happy to be sharing our fifth newsletter for the Far-UVC Study!

Thanks to our partners Research Nova Scotia, Geriatric Medicine Research, Windsor Elms Village, Northwood - Live More, and The Cove Guest Home!

This study was born out of a global pandemic and its
success was only possible because of the collaboration
of those in our long-term care communities. Together, we
built one of the largest and longest-running investigations
of far-UVC in real-world settings.

As researchers, we are humbled by the opportunity to
work alongside caregivers, residents, families, and staff.
Your involvement has not only shaped this project, it may
influence infection control strategies in LTC homes and other health care settings around the world.

We will continue to keep you informed as results are published!
