Climate change helped coronavirus spread — and your AC means it probably won't die in summer

I posted a few days ago that the use of the word “science” made me think climate change activists will want to impose restrictions all the time.

CNN Touts the Climate Benefits of Chinese Coronavirus

The climate alarmist community is repeatedly praising the alleged “benefits” of the deadly Covid-19 outbreak.

The CNN article is not an isolated anomaly.

Other MSM outlets such as the LA Times and the New York Times have praised the climate benefits of Coronavirus, or cited the positive climate lessons we can learn from the economic damage caused by Coronavirus shutdowns – they appear to want the hardship caused by Coronavirus economic shutdowns to become a template for how we live all the time.

The Times took this disgusting trope a step further, and explored the positive side of Coronavirus killing off old climate skeptics.

Complete BS. The survival of most viruses and this virus decreases with increased temperature and humidity.

Why wouldn’t the PRC use the “Climate Change” hoax and hysteria to promote their goals? They have taken advantage of the idiotic ideology of “Identity Politics” to divide the U.S. politically, why not continue the contagion with more “woke” piffel?

[lastchance]

Balderdash.

If the Green New Deal or the like was in place many more people would be dying from the virus.

You can have my AC, when you pry it from my.....well, you know. 😁

I hope the writers experiment by turning off their air conditioning this summer! (Hope it’s a hot one!). They could save all of us. /S

President Trump, amongst others, claim

President Trump is now plural. MULTIPLY

My system should kill it. I just had my entire HVAC replaced and included the state of the art hospital grade air filtration system with UV disinfection.

[Deaf Smith]

New business plan if I can get funding...

UV disinfecting lights inside the Home HVAC Systems.

Or go submarine and disinfect through heated elements.

[ealgeone]

Got news for the Climate goons....the AC isn’t being turned off.

[VanDeKoik]

My AC consists of a K-Mart fan.

Took longer than I thought it would.

The reason the pandemic will "slow down" during the summer months is that human skin produces vitamin D when exposed to UV. The UV index is lower in the winter and most people are covered up at that time of year. A number of studies have shown that a high blood level of vitamin D is effective in warding off colds and the flu. There is every reason to believe that the seasonal improvement in the immune system will also be effective against the CCP virus.

Of course, people with old skin or with limited exposure to sunlight (e.g., nursing home residents or cubicle dwellers) might need to take a supplement (e.g. 5000 IU per day).

Well, with that slow down in the spread of the virus, it will allow people to prep better.

I will use the time to stock up and make sure we are set to shelter in place for a LONG time.

[metmom]

How are you doing?

I haven’t seen you around for a while and was beginning to get worried.

[metmom]

That’s a little below ours. Ours is ceiling fans.

I have been posting somewhere, about every day. 😀 Since it is summer, 365 days a year, they won’t take my AC. 👍 They have locked down the city. I can’t even take a 5 minute boat ride across the Gulf, to a beach paradise. There is a curfew, 8 PM. The grocery stores seem to have everything, except alcohol sanitizer. No panic buying.
In THIS subdivision, most people are giving the authorities the middle finger. They may not go outside the subdivision, after curfew, but they are out and about, at all hours.

".... Climate change helped coronavirus spread — and your AC means it probably won't die in summer..."

..... Well .... All you would have to do is to go a day or two in hot weather without AC and .... Dead Virus .....

[LegendHasIt]

I don’t see why they are complaining. The ‘Warmists’ WANT a mass die off, especially the older folks who know that the warmists are full of ‘hooey’

[Fiji Hill]

We should be rooting for global warming because the corona virus thrives in cold weather.
