I know that one reason is because we're inside more, and therefore around people more so some diseases spread more easily. However, it seems being out in the cold leads to me being sick as well. Does the cold make you more susceptible to bacteria and viruses?

The colder you are the more weak your immune system is. That's why you're more susceptible to getting sick.

A Doberman may be pleased with the elements, yet i am going to't tell if you're speaking about having or not that is a in most cases outdoor canines or no longer. i does no longer recommend it if that is the case. so a strategies as camping with you, that could be superb. yet with maximum canines breeds, they require the companiionship of being an indoor puppy with the kin. dogs from respected breeders (examine the hyperlinks Rayven revealed) will be health examined and a lot less possibly to be ill. Our previous Doberman may get very chilly interior the wintry climate yet develop into continually superb interior the summer season.

In the winter it tends to get very cold. Bacteria and viruses thrive and grow better in cold, dry weather, both in the winter. For some people, they get cold in the winter due to allergys. Allergetic plants usually start coming out then for spring is just around the corner.

definately because we are inside more. think about the first few weeks of school, suddenly we are all sick because so many people are close together, touching everything. some say our immunity isn't as strong during the cold weather, but that is not the sole reason. sharing spaces has a lot to do with it.

Doctors say no, but I don't agree with them. I could be home alone, then the weather turn very cold and snow and I would get sick without being around anyone to catch it from.

No, the cold is just hard on the body.
Cover nose and mouth and ears in the cold helps.
Lack of moisture in the air in homes and carpets allergies.

Cold weather does not cause a cold or flu. All the viruses in the air cause a cold. Since each virus is different, you can never have the same cold or flu twice. Each is different. That's why a cure cannot be found.

Viruses breed better when it's warmer even though you contracts viruses easier when your body temp gets colder. Your immunity drops with your body temp.

the cold itself doesn't make you sick, but it does weaken you immune system. and more bacteria is able to survive...i think.

i think maybe because the inside living areas that we are in are kept warmer and germs can live longer in warm atmosphere..
