: Why do cold temperatures cause a weaker immune system/make it easier to get sick?

I don’t know if it actually causes a weaker immune system, I just assumed it did. Otherwise the title says it all.

I could add for example why is leaving home early in the morning with wet hair, when it’s cold outside, considered not good because you could get sick.

It takes energy for you body to warm itself, taking energy away from immune system functions.
