Why Sauna is a good protection against the coronavirus
Finnish used a sauna to kill bird flu
According to Agence France-Presse, experts from the Finnish Ministry of Agriculture stated on September 5, 2005 that the sauna can effectively kill the bird flu virus because the virus cannot survive high temperatures. For this reason, the Finnish Ministry of Agriculture requires people who return from avian flu-affected areas to immediately “sauna disinfect” themselves and their clothes, shoes, and luggage. Clothes need to be steamed for 3 hours at a high temperature of 70 degrees Celsius (Finnish sauna the penetration rate is high, the number is estimated between 2-3 million).
In addition, the Ministry of Agriculture issued a notice requiring poultry farmers to use saunas to prevent the spread of the virus.
New coronavirus is not resistant to high temperatures
The new coronavirus is sensitive to heat. It can be effectively inactivated by keeping lipids such as ether, 75% ethanol, chlorine-containing disinfectant, peracetic acid and chloroform at 30 ° C for 30 minutes.
At this time, if a sauna is installed at home, you can enjoy the benefits brought by the sauna at any time. Enhance immunity: improve the body's immune function and enhance its ability to resist disease. Eliminate body toxins, reduce the burden on the body, improve the blood circulation of the whole body, especially the microcirculation, promote the body's vigorous metabolism and start the decline of cells.
The temperature of the sauna room can be as high as 90 degrees Celsius. If the clothing quilt at home is placed in the sauna room for high-temperature disinfection, it must be kept away from the heater. The temperature must not be too high, and someone needs to watch to avoid fire accidents.

勸君洗一熱水澡，新型病毒大減少
——致鐘南山院士，李蘭娟院士的建議書
Dear Academician Zhong, Academician Li: Dear Governor Jiang Chaoliang, Mayor Zhou Xianwang, Hubei Province:
My name is Hu Yong. I am a PhD in immunology studying in the United States. I am in Wuhan. Specializing in virology and respiratory vaccines for 30 years, he is now in his hometown of Ezhou for the New Year. In view of the increasing number of patients, suspected patients and large susceptible people, I suggest that a considerable part of the energy should be focused on the susceptible people. The "specific measures" are through hot showers! Encourage all people to actively take self-protection. In order to achieve the purpose of reducing the spread of the epidemic on a large scale!
A. Why do we reduce the number of susceptible people?
I saw the CCTV interview video of Academician Li, and I very much agree with the viewpoint of urgent "closing the city". Academician Li once again emphasized the key to the "three axes": 1. Control the source of infection; 2. Isolate the patient; 3. Protect vulnerable groups. My department is a 81-year undergraduate student and a 86-year postgraduate student from Wuhan University. I studied with Professor Xiang Jinmin, a famous virologist in China. These three axes are kept in mind when we are studying medicine!
The current status is: 1, the source of the infection is partly known, but not yet determined; 2. Isolation of patients is now very good, and most of the fever patients are isolated; 3. But in terms of protecting vulnerable populations, Work seems to me too little or too little, and it can be described as not enough. There are several reasons for this: 1. The number of susceptible people is much larger than the number of diagnosed and suspected patients, and the entire Hubei is now a susceptible group; 2. The method of protecting susceptible people is relatively simple, only masks, but masks are in many areas in Hubei It is out of stock; 3. In order to really reduce the epidemic, we must take the protection of susceptible people as the top priority to promote completion.
B. Medical mechanism of hot bath protection for vulnerable populations
A hot bath refers to artificially increasing the body temperature to a level that can be artificially tolerated. Under the action of heat, human body temperature increases, capillaries expand, and blood flow increases, so that the overall temperature of the body can reach about 40 ° C. At this time, the temperature of the respiratory tract (including the throat, trachea, bronchus, and lung lobes) can reach about 40 ° C, and the high-temperature blood flow through the capillaries can confront the virus, thereby achieving the purpose of strongly inhibiting the growth of the virus and protecting the vulnerable population. On the other hand, as a physical cleansing, hot bath can greatly reduce the virus concentration in the hands, skin, throat, mucous membranes and other parts, so it can significantly reduce the chance of infection among people; at the same time, because the infected people have not been completely isolated, take a bath Decreasing the concentration of the virus can reduce mutual infection between people and ultimately reduce the risk of infection in susceptible people.
I am a virus learner, all viruses can be inactivated at 56 ° C, that is, the virus dies. Influenza viruses have temperature-sensitive properties, that is, when the temperature is high, the recipient cells cannot be adsorbed and cannot be husked (this is much like a snake peeling activity); nor can the virus replicate in the cell. Temperature is the nemesis of the virus! In addition, patients with fever and high fever are a natural physical mechanism. Many patients recover from serious illness after fever. The reason is that the virus stimulates our brain (hypothalamic temperature control center), and the hypothalamus produces peptides and peptides. Polypeptide greatly increases the body's body temperature, which can achieve the purpose of inactivating the virus! In view of the fact that most patients diagnosed with the new pneumonia coronavirus also develop fever, it can be concluded that fever is also an effective method to inactivate the new virus! It is worthy of careful consideration, Borrow!
C. Highly promote hot baths.
Now almost all cities in Hubei have implemented traffic control. Vulnerable people watch TV at home. Taking hot baths at home is a simple operation, the most effective way, the lowest cost, and the easiest way to protect vulnerable people. Increasing the number of cases, suspected cases, and large-scale susceptible people, hot baths can be promoted nationwide! As long as the media and the government actively promote, you can overcome the epidemic as soon as possible. We really hope that the people of Hubei and the people of the country will get rid of the virus as soon as possible!
Dear Academician Zhong, Academician Li, Governor Jiang Chaoliang and Mayor Zhou Xianwang, the above-mentioned meager efforts that I have made for the current epidemic! Please correct me if you are inappropriate!

What if I do not have a sauna?
The sauna needs to be placed in a bathroom or a place where it can be drained. Not all families have the conditions to install a sauna. The infra sauna is designed for homes where traditional sauna rooms cannot be installed. TYLO infra sauna has a variety of specifications and power, and the temperature can reach to 65 degrees Celsius. There is no moisture in the use of the infra sauna room, and it can be placed in the bedroom, bathroom and other places.
Experts urge everyone to isolate themselves, wash their hands frequently, ventilate frequently, and go to places with high crowds; prevent and control the epidemic, and unite aspirations; Diya Industry and Commerce wishes everyone a happy Chinese New Year, a healthy home, and aggression.
