why are scientists obsessed with telling me that cold weather does not cause a cold when it obviously does? is it because the viruses were there hanging out all along and the cold weather just helped them attack? buy even in that case the final piece of the puzzle was the cold weather
it's because every question has to have a yes/no answet in med school
>>17030860>telling me that cold weather does not cause a coldsaying this makes people feel superior and more knowledgeable. It's the ego doing its thing, as usual

>>17030860>why are scientists obsessed with telling me that cold weather does not cause a coldit's the germ theory griftyou even cure a COLD by WARMing yourself with clothes and food>um akchully it's because you're sweating out the virus o algo>w-why doesn't the sweated out virus instantly reinfect you? it's inactivated o algo idk
>>17030860Because it doesn't. Cold weather increases the likelihood of catching a cold because people stay inside more, thus helping the pathogens to spread more easily from person to person. But the cause of the cold itself is the bacteria/virus.Saying "cold weather causes influenza" is just factually incorrect. It's like saying "being gay causes engine failures". No, it doesn't. It just makes it more likely you're driving a Ford.
>>17031899There is also the fact that cold air contains less water vapor, which dries mucous membranes.
>>17031899Nah. Sleep in a cold place a few times and you'll find yourself coughing and sneezing. Heck if you don't properly dry yourself after bathing you might catch a cold.
>>17031899There are so many people who spend all day at the office and even then they get sick more often in winter than summer.
>>17031971science can't explain this, but your grandma can
>>17030860It's because they're being excessively pedantic due to the overreliance of their training.Well ackshually, technically, only the pathogen can make you infected and thus symptomatic, you see? Don't go around telling the childrens the air temperature is why they have a cough and a fever! They'll misunderstand! Muh heckin sciencerino.
>>17030860Social media AI spam isn't science.Social media algorithms aren't science.Go back to Twitter.

>>17030860Scientists will do anything for money.
I was also under the impression that our immune system struggles to work in the cold
