Then there's Singapore. Occam's razor here, for at least a couple hundred years we've known that transmitted diseases spread when there is high population density and high mobility. Why grasp for completely unsupported assertions like "high" temperature when a couple hundred years worth of data supports the obvious conclusion...unless you're still grasping the random, uneducated crap that Trump continuously spews?

Yes, and so far there is still no fatality there. I don't think it is because they have immunity and we don't. Maybe we can learn something from them.

Well, let's be honest, all this article shows is that Simon Powell at Jefferies does not understand that he's not qualified to draw any conclusions from the data. No surprise there. I would venture that Dunning-Kruger is even more common in sell-side strategists than it is on Elite Trader, a stunning achievement.

There is, however, some evidence that warmer temperatures reduce respiratory infections, primary due to improvement in herd immunity but also somehow reducing survival of the pathogens. I am not a specialist, but I recall reading about it a few years ago. It's unclear it would help, though, in this specific case.

Actually your logic makes some sense, by looking at the history of SARS and MERS, though they were lest contagious.
