French scientists who conducted research on COVID-19 did some experiments on what temperatures the virus could withstand. In experiments by exposing the virus to 60 degrees, it was discovered that COVID-19 can survive at this temperature for a long time. As a result of the experiment, it was revealed that the coronavirus died in a short time only at higher temperatures. In the experiment, the infected cells were placed in two separate test tubes, one sterile and the other dirty. It was observed that some of the viruses in the dirty tube continued to survive and multiply, while the COVID-19 in two sterile tubes exposed to a temperature of 60 degrees became inactive in a short time. They can’t live at 92 degrees Scientists discovered that when they increased their test at 60 degrees to 92 degrees, viruses were inactive in 15 minutes. This study will contribute to the finding of new methods to prevent COVID-19 to pose a risk to healthcare personnel. Will the spread of the virus decrease in the summer? The first question that comes to mind as a result of these tests is how the virus will spread during the hot summer months. According to the researches, summer heat is not enough to kill the COVID-19 virus, but here another feature of the Sun can help our help. COVID-19 may be able to withstand the temperature, but according to research it is not able to withstand ultraviolet rays. Experts predict that the coronavirus will be more exposed to ultraviolet rays in the summer, so the outbreak will slow down. Of course, although ultraviolet rays are expected to slow down the outbreak, we need to use the next process very well. Experts who want us to pay attention to social isolation think that coronavirus outbreaks may increase again when the weather begins to cool.
