A Hygiene hub comprising:

• a plurality of walls forming a chamber with opening to receive a hand of a subject;
• one or more sensors coupled with the plurality of walls to detect within the chamber the presence of one or more pathogens present on the hand of the subject;
• and
• an ultraviolet light source operative to emit 222 nm ultraviolet (UV) light onto the hand of the subject in response to the one or more sensors detecting the presence of one or more pathogens present on the hand of the subject.

A method for disinfecting one or more body parts of a subject comprising:

• placing the one or more body parts adjacent a hygiene device;
• sensing, with an ultrasonic transducer coupled with the hygiene device and transmitting in a subsonic range, one or more pathogens on the one or more body parts;
• identifying, using a controller coupled with the transducer, a type of the one or more pathogens on the one or more body parts;
• and
• irradiating the one or more body parts with 222 nm Ultraviolet light for a predetermined period of time, the predetermined time set based on the identified type of the one or more pathogens.
