How Come it&#39;s easier to get a cold when it&#39;s cold?

I mean bacteria and viruses like when it&#39;s warm and snuggly.

So Why do you get colds easier when you&#39;ve gotten cold?



Is your body more vulnerable when you&#39;ve gotten cold, is it because your metabolism gets slowed down, or does it have to do with tissue getting damaged by the cold, or what?

Because we all huddle together in our centrally heated buildings where the bugs have a veritable nirvana of a habitat.
During the warm seasons we all go out in the "fresh" air or have windows open that refresh the indoors air. [/b][/quote]

Why do we catch more colds when the weather is cold?

This is still a mystery&#33; Maybe our cold noses cannot fight off the viruses as well in winter. Maybe there is more stress in winter (especially on the lead up to Christmas) which is known to inhibit our immune system. Maybe our bodies and defences are affected by the shorter days and lack of sunlight. The answer is unclear, but the result is the winter months spent coughing and sneezing.

From the second link.

Guess this is the best answer I&#39;ll get.

Anyone have another theory?

So they sort of do it on purpose then.

Interesting.

How do you think they know to do it?

Do they have some sort of hive-mind thing going on, do you think?

[Mathea]

exactly

you see, it is their goal to take over the world, so they wait till ppl are miserable enuff at it being cold and all, then they make it worse by making their attack

its a group effort

Cool.

Do you reckon they want to steal our bodies?

You know, take over.
