The coronavirus lives on clothes for up to three days | News Hub

   The deadly virus that kills millions is still a mystery to scientists today, News Hub

   England (News Hub) It has been more than a year since the Corona epidemic came into the world

and by that time this insidious epidemic has killed millions of people while affecting millions. And despite the arrival of the second and third waves of corona in different countries and the development

of the corona vaccine, researchers have not been able to find out anything completely about the

disease.

   According to the news hub, a new study has found that the virus can live on human clothing for up to three days, raising concerns.

   Scientists have discovered that the coronavirus, which causes Covid 19, is common. Can live up

to 3 days in clothing. This claim came to light in a medical study in the UK. A study by De Montfort University examined the presence of coronavirus on polyester, polycotton and 100% cotton. The

results suggest that polyester has the highest risk of being exposed to the virus for several days. The researchers said that the materials commonly used to make clothing could increase the risk of transmitting the coronavirus.

   Particles were tested and then it was seen how stable the virus is on each material for 72 hours.

The results showed that the polyester surface of the coronavirus was still present after 3 days and its ability to be transmitted to other items was maintained. In contrast, in 100% cotton, the virus survived for 24 hours, while in polycotton it Survived only 6 hours. Researchers say that when the coronavirus outbreak began, we knew very little about how long the coronavirus could survive on clothing.

   He said that the results of the research show that the 3 most common materials used in the manufacture of garments may pose a risk of transmission of the coronavirus to medical personnel.

He added that these materials are used for medical personnel uniforms. They are commonly used

and can spread from clothing to other items. The study also looked at how the coronavirus can be removed from pure cotton.

   According to the news, water removes the coronavirus from washing machines, but this does not when saliva to clothing that has the virus in it. In such cases, detergents and a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius can completely eliminate the coronavirus.

   However, the coronavirus is not transmitted to other clothing by washing clothes. But researchers

say it is better for medical staff to wash clothing at a medical center rather than at home, and the old recommendations are not very effective.
