In general, neither hair washing nor disinfection is necessary when back home from outside. Current research has found that the virus is sensitive to UV light and heat. There is very little chance that infectious droplets with a high concentration of virus could stick to the hair. So just keep your hair clean as usual.

一般情况下，公众外出回家后不需要特意洗头或消毒。目前研究显示，病毒对外部环境中的紫外线和热比较敏感。在室外，头发粘到高浓度同时有活病毒的飞沫可能性非常低，保持头发日常清洁即可。
