We need more studies, or maybe metastudies, that compare the germicidal benefits of UV lamps with the health disadvantages (skin cancer, ozone).

It seems that there is consensus on both effects, but I can't find anything conclusive that allows the scale of the effects to be measured sufficiently to do a benefit/cost analysis for each type of light spectrum and usecase.
