I have no reason to doubt that sunlight and higher temperatures kill COVID on exposed surfaces, but that doesn't mean that the summer will reduce the effective R of COVID enough in and of itself to prevent the further spread of the virus without rigorous social distancing.
Perhaps if will help people who work outside and will make it safer for people to go to beaches, etc. but it's way too early to conclude that it will save us.
In other news, results from the first Remdesivir trial was disappointing. Had high hopes for it based on anecdotal data.
EDIT: For what it's worth to conservatives, Trump just said at his presser that we had to shut the country down and that had we not done so we would have lost over a million Americans and that we had no choice. So I'm not sure why so many conservatives have been speculating that the lock down was unnecessary and that the virus wasn't that deadly.
