How would warmer temps keep symptoms in check and severity down? Temps don’t affect don’t severity and symptoms. People aren’t getting as sick because a younger, healthier demographic is now becoming infected.

We’ve heard that warmer temps and humidity make the virus a little harder to pass on to someone else. This is assuming you are outside, of course. There is no difference in a packed bar being an easy environment to transmit the virus if it is summer or middle of winter.

Unfortunately you are probably correct.
