Did they accidentally buy UVC sterilization tubes instead of the relatively harmless UVA party lights?

That has to be it. They got drawn in by the beautiful shade of blue they make and gave everybody the experience of welding for 12 hours using only safety squints and a t-shirt.

And for everyone that doesn't know, UVC radiation is the bad kind of radiation (ionizing).

The Bulbs in this picture sure do look like UC-V lights in my opinion.

At least the venue is nice and germ-free now

Those are absolutely UVC sterilizing lamps. Recreational blacklights put off almost no visible light. These are very clearly UVC emitters. I have both kinds here in the lab. Blacklights for fun. UVC in a sealed box for sterilizing equipment... it is DANGEROUS SHIT.
