Not a lot of home heaters will get a house up to 150deg F.
Thanks!
“ Increasing temperature to 65°C had a strong negative effect on viral infectivity as virucidy dropped significantly to 1 minute.”
65% centigrade is about 150 in real units...
Not as good as I’d like, but supporting info.
what do you think of this guy’s idea?
disinfecting masks by soaking in boiling water:

one point this fella makes in his video is, if your mask is contaminated so is your hair and clothing. Maybe that’s why the CDC is saying masks aren’t necessary???
From your article.
“ Serum heat inactivation at 56°C for 30 minutes is a standard procedure in diagnostic laboratories to eliminate the potential complement interference in serological assays. Our results showed that this procedure is sufficient for viral inactivation as virus titres in blood are expected to be weaker than at the point of infection.”
56 C = 132 F
Re 473: Run the heat up to what temperature to remove this virus?
