1. One person here on DU keeps putting in stealth posts that imply maybe heat

makes a difference. The person points to the low infection rate in Australia, totally ignoring low rates in colder South Korea and Taipai, or bad infection rates in warm Louisiana.
People in hot regions typically rely on AC more, particularly in the West. This fact could increase rates if people aren't careful and governments very proactive about locating and isolating infected people.

I explained to that person that Australia was one of the most agressive countries in the world at attacking the spread of the virus early on, unlike our national leader.
