>From the 9 page report of The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, sent to the White House:
*“Given current data, we believe that the pandemic likely will not diminish because of summer, and we should be careful not to base policies and strategies around the hope that it will. We might very well see a reduction in spread in the beginning of the summer, but we have to be careful not to put that down to a changing climate — it is plausible that such a reduction could be due to other measures put in place. Human behavior will be most important. If a human coughs or sneezes enough virus close enough to the next susceptible person, then temperature and humidity just won’t matter that much. Given that countries currently in ‘summer’ climates, such as Australia and Iran, are experiencing rapid virus spread, a decrease in cases with increases in humidity and temperature elsewhere should not be assumed.”* John K Clark -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
