Is it true that catching a cold has nothing to do with being out in the cold?

Yes. A cold is a viral disease. It is passed from one person to the next, usually by way of airborne droplets from a sneeze. You can also pick it up if your hands are dirty (with the virus) and you touch your eyes or nose. Catching a cold has nothing to do with the temperature outside, or whether or not your hair is wet.

Thought Stephi you all might be interested to hear that. :)
