Eagle Hill School is the first school in the country to do a mass installation of Vystar Corporation’s RxAir 400® UV-C Light Air Purifier Systems throughout its campus, including classrooms, common areas and dormitories. RxAir 400 air purifiers are FDA Certified Class II medical devices proven to destroy 99.9% of airborne bacteria and viruses, including multiple Coronaviruses, H1N1, MRSA, pneumonia, strep, TB, measles, influenza, and the common cold through extended exposure to high intensity UV-C lights. RxAir also neutralizes odors, indoor pollutants, and VOCs (volatile organic compounds). Vystar is establishing an ambassador partnership with Eagle Hill School whereby Eagle Hill will serve as a showcase for peer schools to demonstrate how RxAir UV Light air purifiers can help improve air quality and reduce risk of infection from airborne pathogens, resulting in healthier students and teachers. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) on October 5, confirmed that COVID-19 can be transmitted via airborne means. Concurrently, a group of U.S. scientists more strongly warned in the medical journal Science, that aerosols lingering in the air could be a major source of COVID-19 transmission. Microscopic aerosolized viruses and bacteria expelled when people talk, breath, cough and sneeze can hang in the air like smoke for hours waiting to infect one who inhales them. Other airborne diseases include Influenza, pneumonia and other Coronaviruses that cause the common cold. Therefore, continual air disinfection is critical to reduce risk of infection. RxAir’s ability to inactivate airborne pathogens helps create a healthier learning environment. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) reports that poor indoor air quality “can reduce the productivity of teachers and staff due to discomfort, sickness or absenteeism”.
