Will the Corona epidemic end in the summer ? .. Scientific efforts to find an answer




Many people around the world believe that a rise in temperature during the coming summer season can help stem the spread of the emerging corona virus, or perhaps eliminate the epidemic wave once and for all.

Although various estimates have emerged in this regard, there is no definitive answer yet to the question of whether the summer heat will eliminate the epidemic, researchers say.

Scientists at the University of Utah are trying to test samples of the Corona virus under varying temperatures, according to the "Science Life" scientific site.

These tests may help public health officials learn how the virus reacts to temperature changes.


The physicist at the university, Saviz Safarian, says that the Coruna virus is spreading in a manner similar to the spread of influenza, in terms of infectious mucus droplets suspended in the air.

The world pointed out that the evolution of the interaction of the virus drops or nebulizer at certain temperatures affects the strength of infection, explaining that the viruses lose effectiveness because their particles lose their structural unity.


Safarian received a $ 200,000 grant from the National Science Foundation to learn how the outer surface of the virus has responded to changes in temperature and humidity.




The research is based on building fake copies of these viruses, with outer covers placed on them, but these copies do not contain viral genomes, which makes experiments safe and not infectious.
Versinin emphasized that the copies that are being tested are an exact copy of the Corona virus, stressing that the research seeks to find out what makes these viruses collapse and die.
To carry out an experiment targeting nanorevirus, scientists use focused light rays, and this energy can move virus particles.

The researchers said they hope to see how well the virus can transmit in different conditions, from the open air in the summer heat to the inside of the air-conditioned offices.
This can affect how long the policies of closure and social separation should be.

A 5.7-magnitude earthquake hits Utah, cuts the power to tens of thousands, and stops flights

A 5.7-magnitude earthquake struck the Salt Lake City area on Wednesday morning, cutting tens of thousands of electricity and suspending work at a Utah public health laboratory in the midst of the Corona virus pandemic. The airport said that flights to Salt Lake International Airport were diverted, departure was delayed, and terminals and terminals cleared so that engineers could inspect the facilities. The US Geological Survey said the quake was centered about 10 miles west of Salt Lake City, near Magna, starting at 7:09 am (9:09 am ET). People gathered in Salt Lake City city center after they left their buildings due to shaking and stayed outside. This is the state's strongest earthquake since 1992, when a 5.9-magnitude earthquake struck the St. George region, Utah's emergency management department said. The state’s Ministry of Health said that operations at the state’s public health laboratory were halted as the building was evaluated for damage. Th...

Panic in stores and markets on toilet paper and canned food

With the spread of the Corona virus around the world, shoppers are running around the markets, supermarkets and pharmacies either to fight the Corona virus or to prepare for possible quarantine. Early popular products were Clorox wipes and hand sanitizer. As with the spread of the virus in a large way, the demand has become steadily on toilet paper. Because of the panic, fear of the people, and the high turnout in stores, most stores have restricted what people can buy, as shoppers cannot purchase more than six antiseptic wipes, hand sanitizers, and hard wipes. But why is the toilet paper the last purchase without others? The behavior of people and their high demand for toilet paper has been explained by the fact that since people do not know how to interpret the virus, it raises the need to prepare in any way possible. Something they can buy they know they might need ... is toilet paper. With the spread of the epidemic around the world, people were seen rushing t...

The virus (Corona) will remain and will end in early April

It is not a corona virus, but an illusion of corona . It is an experiment with gas in an American biological laboratory, which was not controlled on 4/1/2020 in Afghanistan (the reason for signing the US cooperation agreement with the Taliban, after 40 years of conflicts, and Trump's fear that the truth will be revealed for personal purposes), (Italy's agreement with The United States), (Trump's request for the German doctor, and an agreement and temptation for money with the refusal of the German authorities because of the pressure, and the blackmail of the United States), (the fear of European countries due to the high rate of aging in them). It means that the countries in which the gas spread took place a while ago without anyone's knowledge, and the secrecy of the American authorities. Modern sarin gas used experiment in Syria, killing 1345 in two days. One of the most dangerous gases, it has no smell, taste or color. It converts from gas to liquid, a...
