London Cold Is A Bigger Killer Than London Heat Or The Cold Of The Bulgarian Capital, Sofia
London cold turns out to be a bigger killer than London heat, and a bigger killer than the cold of Sofia, the capital of Bulgaria, reveals a comparison of temperature effects between the two capitals, reported in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. But ultimately, summer is good and winter is bad for health, concludes the study. The... view more... (2003-07-25)
