Recently, the cold snap has hit and the temperature has plummeted. Some netizens are curious why a bunch of people in Taiwan can’t stand it when it’s only 13 degrees. Did they die more suddenly?
The original PO posted a post on PTT, and he curiously asked, “Why do people die suddenly when Taiwan is as cold as 13 degrees?” Obviously, in some temperate or even frigid countries, the winter is closer to 0 degrees. Even if there is heating indoors, the outdoors are still cold enough to freeze Snow, so are there more sudden deaths in those countries? He laughed and said that he had heard that some people hoped to have a winter vacation, and they had to go to school at 0 degrees abroad.
After the post was exposed, many netizens commented, “The point is the sudden change in temperature”, “The body feels cooler, plus the large temperature difference”, “The temperature difference is too large”, “Cardiovascular disease + temperature difference = death”.
Some people think that it is because Taiwan is a wet and cold weather type. “In South Korea, a coat is enough at 0 degrees, but in Taiwan it is not enough because it is wet and cold.” “I can wear sleeveless in Canada at 0 degrees. I am in Taiwan in this kind of weather. It’s as cold as perfume”, “Humidity and heat dissipate quickly, and the extreme comparison is that you are in 10-degree water and 10-degree air”, “13 degrees with a humidity of 45 and 70 are completely two worlds.”
