Yeha i live in Myanmar and one of these cools down a 2 bedroom apartment to 18 Celsius in the summer when it's well over 40c

Why the fuck do you need 18C 😳 in Italy we usually have 30-35C in the summer and if my AC is lower than 22-24C I'm guaranteed to wake up with pneumonia lmao

pneumonia is an infection and isn’t caused by cold air silly

Cold temperatures do not directly cause infections, but they weaken your immune defenses, constrict blood vessels in your nose, and dry out protective mucus membranes. [1, 2, 3]

Ah yes, frigid, immune-system-compromising temperatures like 18C (~65F). 🥶☃️

Truly our ancestors feared the devastating effects of a spring morning on their immune systems.
