Everyone. Viruses and bacteria are formed with the participation of water molecules associated with the atoms of the molecules of these biological formations. If this bound water disappears, then the biological structure disintegrates. It is not necessary to blow hot air. You can leave things in a room with a higher temperature. But the time must be increased.

Hi,Since viruses require an aqueous environment, it is best to use a dry iron.

When using a steam iron, the steam injected into the fibers may not have the proper heat, or it may lose heat deep inside the fibers, creating a better environment for the virus.
