It's about length of the day(uv light) not so much temp.
Neither the level of sunlight nor heat levels are much different in Brazil between the summer and winter months. Look at this: Daylight Sao Paulo. It is the worst-hit city.
I firmly believe that the high death rate in Brazil is due to the highly inaccurate case count. They are missing too many cases. Their positive tests are more than 50% of all tests. They simply test too little.

Summer is 3 hours more of sunlight, that's 30% more than now so i would say that's significant. Obviously other factors could be at play.

Yesterday I found out two things. Both bad. First, my friends dad had corona. Gotta say how he's quite an ill person for over a decade, really ill, and he caught corona most likely in a non-covid hospital. It literally crushed him for 2 weeks, he barely survived and was dismissed recently after some recovery. Also, he took tests 4 times and only the fifth time he was tested positive. So that's to say how great tests are... Second thing, which is even worse, an ex-colleague of mine had corona as well. He's my age and he was always healthy. Corona fucking destroyed the guy. He was on a respirator for some time and he was getting tons of medications. He's been in bed for around two months already, he's still in bed as we speak. Right now he doesn't have corona but due to all those meds and everything, his blood pressure is totally fucked up, so he's having another meds now. He seems to be recovering but man, a bulky healthy guy and he was literally crushed.

They're both alive at the least. Hopefully they both make full recoveries without any setbacks.

Big brain shit right there. Can't wait to see people vote for him again. You know, to stick it to the libs.
kinda funny. We've got a generation of folks who are ready to crucify/ cancel a public figure (10x if hes an old detached white man) because they are offended at the slightest mispoken word who will now attempt to rationalize getting behind a presidential candidate who can't open his mouth without an embarrassing fuck up who is also an old detached white man. :boh:

Looks like dexamethasone is pretty good at preventing deaths of covid patients. This is from the same trial that showed hydroxychloroquine was useless

Bro, if any other president said 1% of the stuff Trump did, they’d be out of office- Democrat or Republican. It’s not just the stuff he says though, he has no grasp of how the government should work and is an incompetent buffoon.

That's a mess. Good they're hanging on.

But surviving COVID can leave your body internals looking like 1945 Dresden.

This guy is a total disaster!
The US doesn't have to report deaths anymore either. I think the logic is the US is the best in the world at testing for death, so it will merely inflate the fatality statistics.
