(289 posts)At 29 years old, he's way too young to think a cold comes from temperature change. Ya know, like getting "cold"? LOL

(37,748 posts)Viruses that cause colds may spread more easily in lower temperatures, and exposure to cold and dry (e.g., an ice rink) air may adversely impact the body's immune system.
