Far-UVC has a lot of potential once it's scaled up. Right now, we're still learning about best practices.

Institutions should be adopting this tech at scale.

If we're still learning about best practices why are we talking about deploying this at scale? Self contradictory article.....

It should be the other way around. Figure out if it works academically, then test small scale, then scale up with proven and reproducible results. That's how science works. Best practices can be formulated and adjusted at each stage as more knowledge is gained. That's how we don't make a massive health mistake and give an entire convention center indoor sunburns. Especially for people who might be more sensitive to sunburns.
