Do We Get a Cold Because of Cold Weather?
In cold winter, more people seem to catch a cold.
Does that mean cold weather is the reason for catching a cold?
We often think that we catch a cold due to the cold weather, but that is not the case.
We catch a cold because of the cold virus.
In fact, if it is too cold, cold viruses cannot live.
But as it gets colder, the air becomes dry, which is a great environment for viruses to live.
Viruses easily enter the body.
Also, as we tend to stay indoors with many people, the chances of the virus spreading increase.
To avoid colds and stay healthy in winter, it is important to maintain proper humidity and avoid viruses by washing your hands often.
