This is high season for every other coronavirus.

Period.
The old review articles from the 70s that i posted said this about the cold coronas.

We've known this for years and years.

People reinfected with cold coronaviruses. Posted May.

Why should we assume SARS-CoV-2 would be different?

Answer cannot be "novel virus", "no solid evidence that it reinfects", "I am an expert" or "magic pony for Christmas", although the latter would be most accurate.
A general finding is that antibody is present in a significant portion of adults who, in spite of possessing this antibody, can go on to have reinfection and illness.

This is a very important paper.

Transmission over more than 2m with only 5 min exposure - captured by CCTV.

Contact tracers don't even look for these connections.

Right now when people tell you there is no airborne spread remember THEY ARE NOT LOOKING FOR AIRBORNE SPREAD BECAUSE THEY DO NOT BELIEVE IN IT.

This is why elevator buttons get blamed instead of aerial transmission - they don't believe in aerial transmission.
Let me complete the thought.

IF YOU DO NOT LOOK FOR IT YOU WILL NEVER FIND IT.

I'm not sure I have the time to explain just how much information is out there so I am just going to post screenshots of articles dealing with airborne/aerosol spread until I get tired.

First the air experts/scientists, wrote time to stop ignoring transmission through air.

The public has gotten involved with the @covidisairborne #COVIDisAirborne petition:
Ontario engineers and scientists now taking up the mantle and pushing for Ontario to recognize air transmission, to which the gov responds with the usual blathering response about "not through an air vent yet"

Only problem is, it has been through air vents.
