To start off, it is very important to understand that viruses in general including this novel coronavirus are non-living things. By non-living things mean, outside a host, for example human beings, they do not survive and are doormat or non-active. Though many people currently still use the term “killing” the virus, it is mostly advisable to refer to a virus outside the human body or a virus that has been dismantled “non-active”. A virus need a living organism such as a human body to survive.
