Look at the influx of daily laborer on street in India, stranded , hungry and walking all over the high ways , is this really lock down ? or worth it ? And same in our poor country too not by influx but daily laborer not been able to work , India and nepal likes to copy china europe america forgetting they are not Europe china or america. Our govt let dual rich citizens travel freely from foreign land and now locking poor own people to suffer. But at what cost ? This is why you need head of govt who understand not only science but economics that fits their own country. P.S. there will be more flu and diseases from living proximity due to large family structure lock down in nepal and india than corona itself watch. 20 people died from corona virus in india but 24 people already killed people in highways accident , all migrant workers , is it really worth it ? Temp will be thekey factor virus to spread pandemic. Plus we are locking god given herd immunity population that is rare in Europe and America.
At temperatures of around 4°C or 39.2oF, certain versions of the coronavirus could remain viable for up to 28 days. At temperatures of 30–40°C (86–104°F), coronaviruses tended to persist for a shorter time.
At room temperature, a coronavirus responsible for the common cold (HCoV-229E) persisted significantly longer in 50% humidity than 30% humidity. Overall, the authors conclude:
“Human coronaviruses can remain infectious on inanimate surfaces at room temperature for up to 9 days. At a temperature of 30°C [86°F] or more, the duration of persistence is shorter. Veterinary coronaviruses have been shown to persist even longer for 28 d[ays].”
When the scientists delved into the literature on the persistence of coronaviruses on different surfaces, the results were variable. For instance, the MERS virus persisted for 48 hours on a steel surface at 20°C (68°F). However, on a similar surface and at the same temperature, TGEV survived for up to 28 days.
