Hot water bath or drinking warm water does not cure Coronavirus

Ever since the Covid-19 outbreak in India, a lot of myths have been doing the rounds on social media, claiming to be easy hacks for curing the deadly virus.

Some people are using social networking platforms and suggesting home remedies and assuring that the virus can be killed using them.

For some time now, the discussion among the netizens is going on whether a hot-water bath or drinking warm water can prevent Coronavirus.

Now, MyGov India says this is a myth and hot water does not kill the virus nor cure the disease. The portal in a tweet mentioned, “A temperature of 60-75 degrees is required in a lab setting to kill the coronavirus,”

According to World Health Organization (WHO), human body temperature remains around 36.5 to 37 degrees Celsius regardless of the temperature of your bath or shower.

However, drinking or gargle with hot water can soothe a sore throat, but it cannot cure COVID-19.
