To be fair, many infectious diseases (possibly even this tropical disease) do better in the winter, and it's not because they store better in the cold. It's because we stay indoors, with our runny noses leaking viruses and our germ-ridden hand touching things. In cold weather, we are much more crowded together in our homes, the Mall, McD's big ball pit, and similar places where it is easier to share a virus without the sun's UV light killing that virus.
It appears that a consensus has formed.
