^{The self-driving disinfecting UVD Robots have been rolled out to more than 50 countries worldwide, to date, with great success. "Before we received the UVD robot, six doctors at our hospital in Sardinia had been infected with coronavirus," says Christiano Huscher, chief surgeon at Gruppo Poloclinico Abano, which operates a number of private hospitals in Italy and recently began using UVD robots. ¨Since we started using the robots two months ago to disinfect, we haven't had a single case of COVID-19 among doctors, nurses or patients."
