100% but IMO Trump should smoke Biden anyway so I'm not sure if he wouldn't have had an even better shot with a humming economy/stock market.

Do we know this?
They aren't doing so well with this in Ecuador. Is it chilly there?

I assume you are just joking around and having fun with me, unless you disagree with doctors, scientists, and centuries of history, and have been completely ignoring Covid-19 information for the last few months.
"Viruses spread through respiratory droplets that are released when an infected person coughs or sneezes. And the droplets are more likely to spread under certain conditions. What we know is that they're [the droplets] are better at staying afloat when the air is cold and dry, " says McGraw. "When the air is humid and warm, [the droplets] fall to the ground more quickly, and it makes transmission harder."

Will Warmer Weather Curb the Spread of Coronavirus?
Chili is further south and is doing worse by 1000 and near same population
in all seriousness getting it for sure not as bad as some of the other countries
They have near 20 mil each and UK taly Spain France Germany all these are between 40 and 80 mil and over 100K vrs 11K for the other 2
Canada, on the other hand, has only 40 K and they are cold with 40 mil population

That's a good question. Economics may play into it. You have a fair point. I'll give you that one. Overall the southern states are doing better than the norther states. Warm countries generally are doing better than colder countries, but you will find exceptions. There are always exceptions.
George Burns lived to 100 smoking cigars. Jeanne Calment was the oldest recorded living person and credited her long life due to a heavy reliance on chocolate, olive oil, cigarettes, and cheap red wine.
There are always exceptions.
Keep 'em coming Daytimer. You and I can definitely agree we are going to learn a lot more about this in the next several months and years. I am still of the opinion that NY got a different strain than the west coast.
The virus prefers cold climates because people stay indoors more, and therefore social distancing isn't quite an option. It feeds on density, not temperature.

Okay, I'll give you that.
I'm completely on board with this as well.

Since Covid-19 attacks lungs, there's a theory put up by our scientists, who claim that early testing shows that the spread here is lower due to an interesting fact.
In order to root out tuberculosis, since WW2 all the population was forced to get a BCG vaccine. Newborn infants have it on day 2, while for the rest there were programs to vaccinate everyone.
The death rate and cases (per million) of Covid-19 around here are much lower than Italy, Spain, UK etc...
