World Health Organization Warns Summer Weather Isn't Slowing Coronavirus
------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Geneva, the World Health Organization warned Tuesday that summertime
temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere are failing to slow the spread
of the coronavirus. WHO spokesperson Margaret Harris warned against
complacency, saying the pandemic is continuing to worsen across much of
the world.

Margaret Harris: "Summer is a problem. This virus likes all weathers.
But what it particularly likes is jumping from one person to another
when we come in close contact. So let's not give it that opportunity.
So, the second wave idea, we are in the first wave. It's going to be one
big wave."
