Incorrect. I took issue with people saying that warm/hot temperatures during the summer would kill the virus, which was funny considering the average human body temperature is almost 100.

The virus thrives in cold/dry air. Moisture in the air (which hotter air holds a lot more of) breaks it down quicker.
None of that meant summer would end the virus, nor does it mean winter will make it go completely nuts. It's all just matters of degrees. Also AC confuses the situation and is one thing we can't look to 1918 for guidance on. It looks like spring and fall are actually the biggest sweet spots for the US - more people outside, less AC, not much heat. |

They talk about it in their question sheet here. https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/fi...e_20200915.pdf But they also downplay seasonality as unproven.

It's far from 100% lock. But in my mind there's enough evidence to think it's very likely the virus likes cold, dry air and doesn't last as long in warmer, more humid air. Last edited by suzzer99; 09-28-2020 at 01:57 PM.. |
