The head of the Federal Public Health Office in Switzerland (BAG), Daniel Koch, expresses concern about the danger that it puts on by the coronary when the weather cools.

The possibility of a second wave of infection would tend to be higher in autumn and winter, he said in an interview for “Schweiz am Wocenenden”. This threatens because the virus can spread better in cold, dry air than in warm, wet air.

Moreover, usually more people are likely to have flulike symptoms in colder seasons - albinfo.ch. Therefore, those with coronary will be more difficult to identify.

So “Mr. Corona”, as the BAG expert calls it, requires caution. “We want to achieve the greatest possible normality without taking over major, uncontrollable risks”, Koch said.

Koch recommends avoiding events with mass presence of people, such as carnivals or festival below the open sky, sends albinfo.ch. When the crowd is very large, it's very difficult to understand who brought the body”.

As an example, he has brought South Korea, where over 1,500 people had to quarantine after such an incident. This couldn't be our goal” has warned Koch.
