Does warm and humid weather really help diminish the spread of covid-19?

Sorry, I’m assuming that you had a primary immunodeficiency disease. You said your immune system was compromised

Would ulcerative colitis be one? It is an auto immune disease

Studies show that it can slow the spread but not stop it completely. Maybe combined with some of the other precautions we are taking it could really slow it down significantly.

Let’s be honest too, the virus has likely been here since mid-January

Not good, but no.

A few days seems less likely to have been infected and be this severe after first test but not completely unlikely. If tests mostly being given different than tests CDC uses to confirm I wonder if they are less sensitive.
Also wondering if specimens from both positive and negative field tests are sent to CDC lab to confirm and to get an idea about test's sensitivity.

My point exactly

Well MERS spreads in the Middle East. That's a pretty warm climate w/ the desert and all.

Is that correct? I mean I know it is but Italy had 10000 cases four days ago and 25000 today?

After several phone calls to fablabs and companies in Milan and Brescia and then, fortunately, a company in the area, Isinnova, responded to this call for help through its Founder & CEO Cristian Fracassi, who brought a 3D printer directly to the hospital and, in just a few hours, redesigned and then produced the missing piece.

24K and some change. Exponential growth is a bitch.

Yes it is. I’m worried about the East and west coast population centers blooming.
Posted on 3/15/20 at 9:42 pm to VABuckeye
I am in one of the West Coast population centers and it is.

That’s in Piedmont. Lombardy is the hardest hit and where reports of that happening were coming from.

I find this paragraph to be spot on.

Unfortunately, we live in an era of people spouting opinions on social media and cable news with no knowledge of a topic. TV pundits with no knowledge of virology, public health, or pandemic history are crowding out medical experts. Twitter, which promotes shouting over listening, is also loaded with comments ignorant to the data. News networks should push aside legacy political commentators and put infectious diseases physicians on the air to warn the public about the pandemic. Now more than ever, physicians need to speak up about the pending health crisis in the U.S.
