and regulatory hurdles in many locations, you can't really install AC in many buildings because there's nowhere to put the external unit

I don’t get it. How much do AC units cost in EU? I can buy one for, like, $200-300.

At the point there is a noticeable mortality spike, it’s not just a few weeks of discomfort eh?

		Still doesn’t solve the cost factor. If you don’t have the money you don’t have the money. And if you barely have the money you’re probably going to take the risk because the risk is still very low.
