[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think most projections are showing sometime between mid-April to mid-May. By June, the warm [b]weather[/b] should help contain the spread... for now. [/quote] Really? Is this evidence based?[/quote] Yes, there is a lot of evidence from the SARS epidemic.[/quote] In the interview with the epidemiologist Michael T. Osterholm that everyone loves to cite, he said there is NOT evidence that coronaviruses slow down in the summer, at least not due to the weather. He cited Mers and Sars as his two examples. Mers was primarily located in the very hot Middle East. And with Sars, he described the timing in totally different terms, how they were able to figure out when patients became contagious and isolate them and thereby slow down the epidemic. The fact that it happened around summertime was a coincidence.[/quote]
