Sunlight may rapidly inactivate SARS-CoV-2 on surfaces, suggesting that surface persistence, and subsequently exposure risk, may vary significantly between indoor and outdoor environments.
The sunlight may rapidly inactivate SARS-CoV-2 on surfaces, suggesting that surface persistence, and subsequently exposure risk, may vary significantly between indoor and outdoor environments. However, in order to fully assess the risk of exposure in outdoor environments, information on the viral load present on surfaces, the transfer efficiency of virus from those surfaces upon contact, and the amount of virus needed to cause infection are also needed.
sun light or UV light affect DNA material and cause thymine dimer so I guess there was no effect on RNA viruses BUT the dryness by heat of sun light may be decrease the infectivity of the viruse.
sunlight rapidly inactivated SARS-CoV-2 suspended in either simulated saliva or culture media and dried on stainless steel coupons. Ninety percent of infectious virus was inactivated every 6.8 minutes in simulated saliva and every 14.3 minutes in culture media.

No, In my best knowledge researches shows that the covid-19 virus ineffective in the 70-90℃ but human survive only in temperature approx/below 50℃. So if we increase temperature of the environment than virus as well as human both are effected.
