Some evidence suggests that individuals with pre-existing conditions are at risk, and the claim might therefore have come about as a cautionary measure for the general population. In any case—and as someone who lives and trains in the tropics, I'm a little embarrassed that I didn't think of it—icy-cold water is not a feature of tropical regions. I have removed reference to the caution. | |

Removed references to widespread by dubious claim; tidied explanation
