India has 1.5 Billion people and much of the country is very crowded. The first COVID-19 case was recorded on January 20th 2020.Rapid spreading was expected to create 100s of Millions of cases quickly.Italy didn’t record its first two cases until January 31st 2020. It spread very rapidly, also in Iran and now in Spain and the U.S.This chart is from yesterday and there have been 2 more deaths related in India since moving the total number of deaths up from 25 to only 27. Cases identified are a little more than 1,000 making it a death rate of around 2.5% which would be much less than the 4.7% average worldwide. Thailand has now 7 deaths total. During Chinese New Year’s when the outbreak was already in full swing (January 25th 2020), 1 Million Chinese visitors, 20,000 of them from Wuhan, visited Thailand.While in Italy, more than 10,000 COVID-19 deaths are recorded, why is the number in India so much lower?The answer might be the heat.
Please be reminded that this has not been scientifically confirmed and is only a theory at this point, not medical or scientific advice. Protect yourself, stay home and practice social distancing.Be also reminded that if there was a heat-related form of protection, it wouldn’t keep a carrier from spreading the virus in an air-conditioned area. This might explain why the rate of spreading is higher in Australia and Florida. Btw. Iran was cold during its initial spreading, not hot as in summer as they were in winter.
Some of you have mentioned that in some countries people are testing less which is correct. My answer to that:
You would expect a large increase of deaths compared to last year’s around the same time if there was a cover-up of cases.
If those deaths were not attributed to the COVID-19 coronavirus due to lack of testing, the increase of numbers would still have to show a significant increase as has been the case in Italy.
So far, I have not seen anything on it and in Thailand, where I am currently located, no changes are visible.

Regarding the low death rate in India from the Corona Virus: I think it could be due to their diet. They do eat a lot of spices, such as Turmeric. This could have protected them from the virus.
Because India has vaccinated their newborns against Tuberculosis since 1948 without interruption.
Italy and USA have never had a program to vaccinate their population.

BCG was mandatory in France for school children between 1950 and 2007 and in the UK from 1953 until 2005.

do you have any peer reviewed evidence to support your hypothesis that spices can fight viruses of any sort?
