Chinese disease control experts: the new coronavirus can survive for 3-4 days at 25 ℃

There are different opinions about the survival time of the new coronavirus. Here's authoritative information, data from the lab.

Recently, Wu Guizhen, chief biosafety expert of China Center for Disease Control and prevention, said in an interview that an article on the social platform mentioned that the new coronavirus can be inactivated at 26 ℃, 27 ℃ or in hand for 5 to 10 minutes, which is a misunderstanding.

In fact, the virus can survive more than 7 days at 4 ℃, 3-4 days at 25 ℃, 2-3 days at 37 ℃, 10-15 minutes at 56 ℃, less than 3 minutes at 70 ℃ and less than 1 minute at 100 ℃.
