If heat kills it why is New Orleans a hot spot for it with temps around 80 degrees? I have been hopeful and banking on “once we get to late spring and into summer, this will die down just based on weather” but seeing New Orleans being so high per capita and then checking the weather worried me a bit.

What were the temperatures 14-21 days ago in New Orleans?

Probably because New Orleans is a high traffic tourist destination, and people are bringing their viruses with them from all over. That would be happening, anyway, just from the flu, I'd imagine. It'll die down as the the rest of the country heats up.

Heat doesn’t kill this virus unfortunately. I do think it’s going to go dormant within a couple months.

One of the most filthy places on the face of the planet and you wonder why it is a hot spot?

quote:first, that question is complex but in general, viruses can live on surfaces. If the temp is low enough, such as when this thing started circulating, a high traffic tourist area is going to be more susceptible. But that doesn't mean the virus is more fatal. Also, what do you mean by hotspot?
