While an air conditioner in a vehicle does not directly cause a cold, it can contribute to conditions that may make a person more susceptible to catching one. Air conditioning can circulate and cool air, potentially drying out the mucous membranes in the nose, which may reduce their effectiveness at trapping viruses. Additionally, if the vehicle is crowded or if someone inside is already sick, the risk of transmission increases. Ultimately, colds are caused by viruses, not the air conditioning itself.
