FACT CHECK 

NewsMobile fact-checked the above information and found it to be FALSE.

As per the WHO website, coronavirus cases have been reported from even the areas with hot and humid weather.

“From the evidence so far, the COVID-19 virus can be transmitted in ALL AREAS, including areas with hot and humid weather. Regardless of climate, adopt protective measures if you live in, or travel to an area reporting COVID-19.

Also, an article by Economic Times dated March 17, 2020, quoted Director, AIIMS, Delhi, Dr Randeep Guleria, as saying, “The impact of the virus is as serious in hot-humid weather conditions of Singapore as in the colder environment of European countries.”

The above information proves that the viral message is false and should not be shared.
