L-VIRA, a germ-zapping robot, emits a flash of ultraviolet c (UVC) light for disinfection of an Intensive Care Unit hospital room at William Beaumont Army Medical Center, Dec. 30. The robot contains special bulbs which emit UVC light destroying cells within a certain radius and reducing the number of Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs) in the area. William Beaumont Army Medical Center began using the robot in March 2015 and continues its use to provide patients innovative, life-saving care through cutting-edge research and technology establishing WBAMC as the flagship of Army Medicine.
