One would think that if specialists in the area can do survivability tests on surfaces they would also do temperature sensitive survivability tests on aerosols.

I’d also think the focus would be on the protective envelope composition, which might be very similar between COVID and SARS.

It is not killing it in Australia where it is summer and hot as Hades.

What about Hillary’s voice? How’s the virus hold up against that?

We could blast it over loudspeakers across the country.

“Scientists not sure”

First piece of honest reporting in a while.

A rise in air temperature causes a higher humidity.

Real “scientists” are never “sure” about anything.

One thing DNC-media not planned for...how much will all the “hype buying” will spur the economy? More demand on supply means more profit for biz.

It’s a ridiculous assumption to suggest the virus will die in warmer weather.

“It is not killing it in Australia where it is summer and hot as Hades.”

Same in Brazil, where the cases just doubled.

It’s going to be 62 for a high in Melbourne on Saturday. Not exactly hot as Hades.

Hawaii two confirmed cases, same number as three days ago. Both patients were exposed while on vacation on the mainland (WA St.) / cruise. Hawaii is a big vacation spot for Asians. Just food for thought.

RE: Hawaii

Nobody is saying that there will be no infections when the weather starts to warm. The cases that you mentioned got their infection from OUTSIDE Hawaii.

How fast or slow will it spread in warm weather is the question, not will a person in warm weather be infected.
