[QUOTE="TRF_heineken, post: 1002824, member: 40658"] Okay, maybe I should've worded it better, but it's more an observation than fact. Based on what I've read on WHO's site, there's too many contradictory evidence to make a conclusion whether warmer climate has an effect on the virus. But from what I've seen, ever since this cold fronts ended in SA, there has been a significant drop in new cases. And some hospitals here up North have less than 5 COVID patients in the wards. Some hospitals have zero COVID patients. What is interesting though is what the Nurses in the hospital are saying. Because of this virus, there wasn't any influenza patients this year in the hospital, which is remarkable, especially in the peadiatrics ward. The peadiatrics ward is usually the one with the highest number of influenza patients, but this year they had none. The wearing of masks and regular sanitizing of hands has basically rid the town of influenza, and while there is always this time of year a big jump in Sinus-infections due to the pollen in the air, that has also significatly dropped because of the covering of the nose and mouth.
