The SARS virus 'level of activity and lifespan both markedly decline at temperatures over 35 degrees Celsius or humidity over 60 %. This is especially the case in well-ventilated spaces, where the virus will die in less than half an hour under these conditions.
以 SARS 來說，在攝氏三十五度高溫、或是濕度六十度以上時，病毒的活性明顯減低、存活時間也大幅縮短，尤其在空氣流通的環境中，不到半個鐘頭病毒就會死亡。
