Re: Chinese Coronavirus
A report on the BBC yesterday said that scientists have found that the virus [covid19] survives longer in cooler temperatures than warmer ones.Looks like my theory about winter and summer might be bearing fruit at last. Although any reasonable thinking person would recognise that viruses tend to die out in the summer; In the UK anyway, for whatever reason.

Has your theory been peer reviewed or reported on the BBC yet?

Re: Chinese Coronavirus
It will be down to human behaviour. The virus passes from normal body temperature to normal body temperature. Humans would have to be in the oven for heat to influence normal transmission in an enclosed space. It's the fact that we are spending time outdoors and have nice strong summer immune systems that might slow it down. But infections are rising and the death rate in the UK is nowhere near under control. Blanket mask usage would be helpful instead of all this ambiguity and conflicting messages.16-07-2020, 03:08 AM

Personally I wish Australia had gone for the elimination strategy (like NZ) rather than the containment strategy. It might have meant a few more weeks lockdown but there would be no local transmission as is happening in Victoria.
Several states have eiminated the virus but not the more populous states.
