No coincidence why we run fevers.

High Temperature and High Humidity Reduce the Transmission of COVID-19

Not a big surprise.  As the authors note, flu shows the same behavior.
Measles virus likewise has a dramatically shorter transmissible lifetime
(airborne or on surfaces) in humid air.

This is a big reason, possibly *the* big reason, why colds, flu, etc. are
mostly a winter problem.

It'll certainly help with this one, but just how much is harder to
predict.  Let's hope for an early spring and a hot, muggy summer! :-)
