Can the novel coronavirus be killed by heat?

High temperature can kill the novel coronavirus. According to reports, the new coronavirus will die in 30 minutes at 56°C. Moreover, 75% alcohol or chlorinated disinfectant can effectively inactivate the virus.

Therefore, it is necessary to disinfect the room during the high incidence of pneumonia, and the house should be properly ventilated to maintain indoor air circulation, which can also reduce the chances of being infected. In addition, when cooking food, make sure to cook meat and eggs, do not eat raw or semi-raw food, and make sure to wash your hands before meals.
