I'd guess UV kills it, and the warmer temperature, the faster it is killed. So sunny, warm weather should bring infections down naturally, like with all cold viruses/flu's...
covid_shmovid saysRight. But Brazil.
One giant wet market of people living on top of each other?
Which makes me think that low density, car-dependent lifestyle have more to do with CA/TX low rates of infection than warm weather and UV light.

Right. But it's hot, humid and drenched in UV. Which are supposedly the factors suppressing cold-like infections naturally. Somehow they suppress jack shit there.

Not saying they're right, but they certainly have an interesting take as evolutionary biologists.
I like another point they make which is that it doesn't have to be a choice for staying totally locked down versus totally opening up

Sure. We can open up schools and have half the kids come in on Monday and Wednesday and the other half can go on Tuesday and Thursday. And they gotta wear masks. The rest of the time they can learn online.
Some people think this scheme is practical.
joshuatrio saysHere we are just over a week later. And the results are fantastic.
Still waiting on that second wave....
And here it is.
Simple weighting based on recent lag shows Georgia could already have more daily cases than it's prior peak.
Data in the last couple of weeks is still being filled in. Simple weighting based on recent lag shows Georgia could already have more daily cases than it's prior peak.
If this is just due to more testing that would be good news.
joshuatrio saysLOL! A bump of an extra 100 cases per day for a week then drops like a CLIFF is a second wave?

And with all that extra testing and thousands of people rioting, there goes your crisis.
Oh, I don't know, maybe they'll just go with an election.
Trump blocking in two acts: Covid timing was too soon, didn't ultimately wreck the stock market, and riots inconveniently overlapped without enough breathing space.

Here's the latest from the Georgia Department of Public Health website.
I wonder if those blue states might turn red after the massive abuse of power they experienced.
