Is the new pneumonia virus floating?

The novel pneumonia virus generally refers to the new coronavirus, and whether it is floating needs to be judged on a case-by-case basis. If observed in air, there may be no floating; However, if it is observed under a microscope, it may be floating.

1. None: The novel coronavirus is a virus that has not been previously found in humans, and the virus can be seen under the electron microscope in a round or oval shape with a diameter of 60-140nm.Whereas, floatability refers to the equilibrium state between the tension and gravity experienced by an object on the surface of a liquid. Since the novel coronavirus is a respiratory infectious disease, it is mainly transmitted to others through droplet transmission and contact transmission. If the new coronavirus is placed in the air, its specific form cannot be seen, so it is not floating at this time.

2. Yes: If the patient wants to know more about the specific situation of the new coronavirus, they can use a microscope to observe it. Because the novel coronavirus appears granular under the microscope and also has a double-stranded structure, its specific form and floatation can be seen under the microscope.

It is recommended to pay attention to protective measures in daily life, wear a mask when going out, and avoid going to crowded places. At the same time, we should also pay attention to maintaining good living habits, ensure sufficient sleep time, and avoid staying up late for a long time.
