We have a lot more data now. The "warm weather or humidity will kill #COVID19" hypothesis is dead, but that doesn't mean that the virus transmits equally well in high humid high temperature weather and cold dry weather.
If R0 > 1, you need social distancing.

If only 1 in 10 people infect another person (r0 = 1.1), after 100 cycles, you get 13,780 new infections. We can see from SEA and Brazil that even in hot humid weather, R0 is still above 1.

This math is wrong sorry. 1 in 10 infections infecting one other is r0 = .1 R0 = 1.1 is 10 infections leading to 11 new infections
