Rumor identification: A hot bath cannot prevent the new coronavirus. Rumor analysis: 1, the new coronavirus is more sensitive to heat, generally in a 56 ℃ environment can be inactivated in 30 minutes. But a hot bath does not prevent the new coronavirus, because the human body at a temperature of 56 ℃ for half an hour bath can lead to pyrexia, and may even have life-threatening. And high-temperature disinfection is a professional operation, and at home in a (soaking) hot bath is completely different. 2, the general public and patients with novel coronavirus do not have close contact, and the body parts are covered with clothes and not exposed, so there is absolutely no need to repeatedly take hot baths. 3.If the infection of novel coronavirus is confirmed, hot baths alone cannot effectively kill the virus. Because humans are constant temperature animals, body temperature remains constant at about 37 ℃, no matter adjusting the outside temperature or hot bath, can not change the temperature of the human body. Special tips: The current method to prevent the new coronavirus infection is to go to less crowded places, wash hands frequently, wear masks outside, and keep indoor ventilation. In addition, in addition to high-temperature disinfection to kill the new coronavirus, the public can also use disinfectants containing chlorine, such as 84 disinfectant or 75% alcohol, or disinfectant wipes to wipe the surface of objects.
