Well normal human bodies usually experinces noly minor temperature changes (core body temperature is +- 2 degrees from the normal 37C) This does not change the behaviour of normal semiconductors as GaAs or Si Modern CPU's can tolerate rather extreme temperatures without failing (0C to 60C) is normally not a problem
I do not know which type of semiconductor was used, but i suspect it was the usual type (either Si-based or GaAs-based)
As to the sneezing part, your guess is as good as mine..:-)
As to the deterioration with time, one might suspect this, as human cells require water and oxygen. Both these substances is rather bad news for most semiconductors. Si-based ones develop SiO2 (or quartz, although microcrystaline to amorphous) which is a good inslator. I do not kow how the other types of semiconductors react, but i suspect most of tem will oxidize if subjected to oxygen and water.
