Neocoronavirus is the new coronavirus, which can be killed by high temperatures.
Neocoronavirus itself is sensitive to ultraviolet light and heat, and the virus can be effectively inactivated at 56 degrees Celsius for as little as thirty minutes, so high temperatures can kill the neocoronavirus.
In addition, ethanol, peroxyacetic acid, chloroform and chlorine disinfectants at a concentration of 75% can effectively inactivate the novel coronavirus. Since people infected with novel coronavirus are the main source of infection of the disease, individuals need to be isolated as soon as they are infected with novel coronavirus pneumonia. After diagnosis of novel coronavirus pneumonia, it is important to actively cooperate with the treatment.
Note: The terms “new coronavirus pneumonia” and “new coronavirus pneumonia” mentioned in this article were renamed to “new coronavirus infection” on December 26, 2022, as announced by the National Health Commission.
