Can Sunlight Kill The COVID-19?

From the evidence so far, the COVID-19 virus can be transmitted in ALL AREAS, including

areas with hot and humid weather. Regardless of climate, adopt protective measures if

you live in, or travel to an area reporting COVID-19. The best way to protect yourself

against COVID-19 is by frequently cleaning your hands. By doing this you eliminate

viruses that may be on your hands and avoid infection that could occur by then touching

your eyes, mouth, and nose.

Studies suggest that coronaviruses (including preliminary information on the COVID-19 virus) may persist on

surfaces for a few hours or up to several days. This may vary under different conditions (e.g. type of surface,

temperature or humidity of the environment). However, there is no evidence that sun light kills the new

coronavirus.

Studies to date suggest that the virus that causes COVID-19 is mainly transmitted through contact with

respiratory droplets rather than through the air. People can catch COVID-19 from others who have the virus.

The disease can spread from person to person through small droplets from the nose or mouth which are spread

when a person with COVID-19 coughs, sneezes or exhales. These droplets land on objects and surfaces around

the person. Other people then catch COVID-19 by touching these objects or surfaces, then touching their eyes,

nose or mouth. People can also catch COVID-19 if they breathe in droplets from a person with COVID-19 who

coughs out or exhales droplets. This is why it is important to stay more than 1 meter (3 feet) away from a person
