Surge could be a result of the appalling living condition
of the migrant workers there.
That's a huge part of it. Many blokes in the same room. Like overcrowded dorms at uni. But i was objecting to the statement of a near lack of covid in Sing because of the heat (btw lots of testing, enforced quarantined, etc there). They reimposed the strict lockdown, but if locked down in an overcrowded dorm...well, that ain't gunna help.

There is reason to be hopeful warmer weather will at least
slow down the spread of Covid-19 based on this comparison
of death rate with population in warmer or regions not as cold
as Europe. You have to look past the number of confirmed cases
of infection in some of these countries to be optimistic though.


Country -------------- Death ------------ Population

Turkey ------------ 3,336 ------------ 84 million

Russia ----------- 1,222 ----------- 146 million

China ------------ 4.637 ------------ 1.44 billion

India ----------- 1,323 ------------- 1.38 billion

Mexico ----------- 2,061 --------------- 129 million

Pakistan -------------- 440 ------------------ 234 million

Singapore --------------17 ------------------ 5.6 million

Japan ------------------- 474 ------------------ 126 million

Indonesia -------------- 831 ------------- 274 million

South Korea -----------250 ----------- 51 million

Bangladesh ------------ 175 ----------- 165 million

Egypt -------------------- 415 --------------- 102 million

Malaysia ------------- 103 ----------------- 32 million

Thailand ------------- 54 ------------------ 70 million

Sri Lanka -------------- 7 ----------------- 21 million

Vietnam --------------- 0 ----------------- 97 million

Taiwan ---------------- 6 ------------------- 24 million

Brazil a tropical country had it's 1st case of death from the Coronavirus on March 17th.
Now in just over 6 weeks they have 6750 deaths from the Coronavirus.

Brazil's death rate is worrisome. That still does
not change the overall lower death rate in the
warmer parts of the world. There are certainly
factors other than weather which are not obvious.

It does prover your assertion that warmer weather equates to lower death rates is false. Brazil is a hotspot.
If you had taken a moment to understand the numbers you would have seen that Brazil over the last 14 days has seen between 50-300% increase in the number of cases and their government has chosen to do absolutely nothing about the virus exactly what Humpty Dumpty Trumpty was doing at the beginning. As per the assertion that Humpty Dumpty Trumpty made about this going away with the hot weather or "gone by April" there is no evidence to suggest the weather stops the virus like he claimed and none to suggest that it will be slowed down.

If the number of infection cases to begin with is from
zero to very low (relative to the population size) spread
of virus will not slow down. People can still catch the virus
indoor in a hotel with air-conditioning in the hottest
place in the world. At this time there is hope that the
number of death per million in the U.S. and Europe
in summer will become no bigger than India in Spring.

There is currently absolutely zero evidence or proof to say this. You are simply repeating the Humpty Dumpty Trumpty words which are non factual.

I am not pointing to any evidence. No one can predict
the future after all. I am merely pointing to the fact that
death rate per capita is lower in warmer parts of the
world including China and countries in its vicinity. It
seems reasonable to hold on to the hope that in
summer when temperature in the U.S. and many parts
of Europe is going to be warmer than India in its
spring the death rate will come down.

It doesn't seem reasonable to have hope for something that is not possible. There are healthcare and medical experts whose job it is to determine how the virus acts and they can predict which they have already said there is no evidence.
Regardless of what some Humpty Dumpty Trumpty groupies say there is no correlation between hot weather and the slowing of the spread of the Coronavirus.
The death rate coming down could well be from other factors in play such as the actual outbreak wave of the virus having passed and better containment measures in place.

Is there a correlation between hot weather and a lower number
of death per million of population?

There must be a correlation between death rate per
capita and something in Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines
and India. I guess it could be one of: population density,
health care quality, medical technology, wealth and
hygiene.

The whole idea that you have posted numerous times now without any medical evidence that the hot weather has an effect on the death rate is fully unfounded.

Exactly and Brazil is a good example of this theory going up in smoke.

As we move into our summer, Brazil is moving into their winter...let’s hope seasonality for the Northern hemisphere helps keep C19 at bay

The warmer weather has not had an effect on the virus yet, so why do some of you keep assuming it can?
Brazil's weather even in the winter does not go below 20C which their coldest months would be July and August.

Please tell me you watched Trump the other week when he put his foot in his mouth (again) about using UV light internally to kill the virus...think this was the same day he asked/suggested about using detergents internally to kill the virus... I can see why Trump wanted Kayleigh McEnany to take over doing the press conferences.

There may be a slight disadvantage to the virus in warmer places (over 25-26 degrees C) but it is not enough to help if nothing else is done - see India for example of that. The jury is really out on this...a lot of warmer places also are not doing any or very little testing. Nicaragua for example. So we don't have enough information to be sure. Low rates in most of Africa might suggest that...or it might suggest that there is no real monitoring taking place which is also quite possible. Brazil is interesting... but Sao Paulo is not as hot as people might think as it is a bit higher elevation with average temperatures in the lower 20's I believe. Rio de Janiro is coastal and tropical. So the distribution of cases within the countries two largest population areas might be interesting. Similar in Colombia...climate is very different between Bogota with average highs around 20-21, and Cartagena, Cali, or Medellin with temperatures in the higher 20's and into the 30's.
