Indoor Humidification Can Reduce Coronavirus Transmission, Infection Risk
“It is not possible for humans to control the outdoor climatic conditions which have allowed this coronavirus to cross species boundaries. However, we are able to manage the indoor environment to support our health and reduce viral disease by regulating critical indoor air factors such as temperature, humidity, air exchange rate and fresh air content. When we maintain indoor temperatures at 20 to 24°C (68 to 75 F) for comfort, it is essential that we decrease our risk of infection by maintaining healthy levels of air humidity and ventilation,” More:

Re: Indoor Humidification Can Reduce Coronavirus Transmission, Infection Risk
This means that conditions in homes and on public transport, where air is typically heated to 20 to 24 degrees for comfort, have resulting low relative humidity from approximately 20% to 40%. These are the ideal environmental conditions for SARS coronaviruses to survive on surfaces and in the air over a long period of time, and consequently for increased transmission via contact with contaminated surfaces and inhalation from the air.

FWIW, I'm targeting an indoor temp of 75 and relative humidity of 60%.

*edit--Windows closed for now but it's rainy. I live in a forest.

Not sure about this. Pretty sure desert environment is better. As far as i know things enjoy high humidity more. Look at jungles etc. Things dont like low humidity. See deserts.

But make your own decisions.

Supposedly viruses are seasonal because heat and humidity (like summer) slow them down.
