You can get viral infections and even respiratory infections in summer.

While many viral infections are more common in the fall and winter months you can get viral infections including the flu, COVID, pneumonia etc in the summer months.

Common viral infections you can get in the summer are enteroviruses, respiratory viruses and viral gastroenteritis.

I've also gotten the flu before in the summer months although I most commonly get the flu in October which I just got over.

The diseases and conditions that are common during summertime include.

Food poisoning.
Sunburn.
Heat stroke.
Dehydration.
