Corona has engulfed the entire world and created an atmosphere of fear. Most of the countries are under lockdown to overcome the crisis.
The number of coronavirus cases worldwide has increased rapildy. The virus has so far claimed more than 190,654 lives.
A few days ago, scientists had claimed that underlined that the the virus has a harder time spreading between people in warmer climates. Scientists in the United States have claimed that the virus is killed after exposure to sunlight.
This was stated by William Bryan, Science and Technology Advisor, Department of Homeland Security.
Government scientists have discovered that ultraviolet rays affect the coronavirus. This raises hopes of reducing coronavirus cases in the summer, Brian said.
He also said that the sun rays kill the virus on both surface and in the air.
High temperature and high relative humidity significantly reduce the transmission of Covid-19.
The research by US scientists has not yet been made public. This research will be sent for review.
Ultraviolet rays have previously been claimed to have a disinfectant effect. Sunlight and UV rays helped kill the coronavirus.
At a temperature of 21 to 24 degrees Celsius (70 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit) (20 percent humidity), the virus is more than half destroyed in 18 hours.
The paper itself was not immediately released for review, making it difficult for other experts to comment on how robust its methodology was.
The virus has spread to countries such as the United States, Italy and Spain.
The United States has the highest number of coronavirus deaths. The number of coronaries in the United States has risen to more than eight lakhs. The situation in America is getting worse day by day due to coronavirus.
At least 3,176 people have died in the United States in the past 24 hours, according to Johns Hopkins University.
But US health authorities believe that even if COVID-19 cases slow over summer, the rate of infection is likely to increase again as winter approaches.
As it is summer season in India, many scientists believe it will help to reduce the number of cases. ``The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has also hoped for a decrease in the number of cases in India.
