An antimicrobial and antiviral composition, a method of producing the same, and the like are provided, which are capable of exhibiting excellent antimicrobial and antiviral properties for a long time through various uses. The antimicrobial and antiviral material includes cuprous oxide particles and a silica-coating layer on at least one part of the surface of the cuprous oxide particles, in which the content of the silica-coating layer is 5 to 20 parts by mass based on 100 parts by mass of the cuprous oxide particles, and the BET specific surface area of the cuprous oxide particles coated with silica is 5 to 100 m2/ g. |
