The emergence of the corona virus or COVID-19 is a global health problem because several countries are facing cases of this virus. The first appearance of this corona virus in Wuhan, China. After that, the corona virus spread to several countries such as South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, the United States, Iran, Italy and others.
Corona virus spreads through virus particles through droplets (phlegm) which are transmitted through coughing or sneezing. These particles can enter the body through the mouth or nose.
Based on a research journal from Elsevier (Healthcare Infection Society) entitled Persistence of coronaviruses on inanimate surfaces and their inactivation with biocidal agents conducted by 22 researchers, corona viruses can survive on the surface of objects such as iron, glass, or plastic for several days. Research shows that the corona virus can survive on the surface of objects for 9 days.
However, researchers prove the corona virus can die within one minute with alcohol (ethanol) 70% or substances that are in antiseptic cleaning agents such as soap, washing soap and hand washing soap.
Even so, because there is no specific way to handle it must take further precautions to stop the ongoing corona virus outbreak.
