Why is the flu so prevalent at certain times of year?
The flu virus thrives in cold and dry conditions, which is why it is more prevalent during the winter months. At colder temperatures, which is the case with winters, the virus survives longer when people stay longer inside, in closed environments which enables an easy spreading of the virus, whereas with the higher warm temperatures in spring or summer the activity and life span of the flu virus drops.Cold Flu - Related Articles
