After surviving the summer and the monsoon, how will SARS-CoV-2 behave in winter? While the World Health Organization (WHO) says that there is no reason to believe that cold weather can kill the coronavirus, the jury is still working on to find out the exact impact of temperature on the coronavirus.
Experts agree, in fact, that most of the evidence for seasonal viruses indicate they are more active during the cooler months of the year.

Experts, however, also point out that there has been no definite trend for Covid-19 yet.
