It’s humid in Florida.
How many cases there?
Originally I read that dry air and heat kills the virus.

Will the heat in an infrared sauna kill the virus?
A hot steaming bath?

Dumb question but since the average person is indoors 90% of the time, does the outdoor condition make much difference?

Heat & Humidity may kill virus sitting on various surfaces, but not kill virus already present in your body. And if you are infected, you can directly infect other people with direct contact.

So things like knobs and cart handles will not be a good place for the virus to survive very long with heat & humidity, but the weak lung of a human is a great place for the virus to multiply.
