I guess all it takes is mosquitos.
Come to think about it I was in Prince Edwared Island in September
once and whenever the temp got above 20C the mosquitos came
out - big ones two.

But I doubt if mosquitos spread infection in February in
Canada.

My example was counterexample to Schwatz's
statement
"Cold kills more people than hot."
Your observation just reinforces my point:
heat is more deadly than cold.

Even the indigenous Canadian malaria P. Vivax
is not infectious during the cold, instead
"incubating in the liver of a human".

Cold made us human.
