Apologies, this:

Put on some tin foil and understand certain areas are getting PTs that need hospitalizations due to this virus.

was not directed at you, just those who think this is a *COMPLETE* hoax.

Obviously, you are the ignoramus, not me. This is indeed what they were reporting three months ago: Higher temperatures affect survival of new coronavirus, pathologist says

“In cold environments, there is longer virus survival than warm ones,” Hong Kong University pathology professor John Nicholls told AccuWeather exclusively.

“Temperature could significantly change COVID-19 transmission,” the authors note in the study. They also pointed out that the “virus is highly sensitive to high temperature.”

One recent research paper supported this assertion by pointing out the proximity of the major hotspots. The authors of the study, which was published last week, wrote that COVID-19 “has established significant community spread in cities and regions only along a narrow east-west distribution roughly along the 30-50 North latitude corridor at consistently similar weather patterns (5-11 degrees C [41 to 51 F] and 47-79 percent humidity)."

“The statistics all show that they breed and survive longer when it’s cold and dry,” Myers said. “So, when it’s warmer and more humid and there’s a lot of sunshine, the statistics on all of the others show a virus is less lethal, it spreads less efficiently and less effectively among humans.”

The problem with this virus is that it doesn’t respond to humidity as does flu viruses.

The problem is the tests. They are lumping antibody tests with active tests. And the tests are not always accurate. We had to demand a refund from the company that did our tests.

Cool.
