Ya. I suspect the ‘hot and dry’ only helps if you don’t have electricity and an a/c.

Otherwise it’s full wuhan.

Especially in the hospitals. Those are one of the first things that get a/c when countries become electrified.

IIRC that’s how SARS spread in several countries. It basically walked through entire hospitals before they realized what it was.

Taiwan update TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — Taiwan reported two more cases of infection by the coronavirus (COVID-19) on Monday (Feb. 24), with the 29th and 30th cases being part of a family cluster that was first recorded on Sunday (Feb. 23). Health Minister Chen Shih-chung (陳時中) said at a press conference Monday afternoon that the two newly confirmed cases include the younger son (29th case) of the previously identified 80-year-old woman (27th case) in northern Taiwan and his mother (30th case). The son, who is in his 40s, began experiencing a sore throat on Jan. 29, but he did not immediately go to a clinic. It was not until his father was confirmed to have contracted the SARS-like disease on Sunday that he was hospitalized and tested for the virus. https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3880595
