I'm no scientist, but I say this is BS. Wouldn't be at all surprised if the CDC recommends, and the powers in state and local governments order restaurants, bars and other public places to turn off their air conditioning. Great way to drive away even more customers and put these places out of business.
But banning air conditioning will probably make the enviro-whackos happy. If they had it their way, we would get rid of furnace heat too. Bad for the environment, ya know.
BTW, I just turned my air on. 75 degrees outside and it's already stifling. Gonna be 90 or more degrees here today.
