An air conditioner is more than just a cooler of air. It is also a dehumidifier and removes moisture from the air besides pollutants.A child, when sick, requires moisture to assist the immune system as often seen when they have a cold and they are given steam to breathe.The use of the air conditioner in this capacity with the cold button turned out or off can be of help, but you should use a humidifier, either steam or dry type to help.
air cons are extremely dehydrating for both babies and adults and make situations worse.. The reason hospital air cons are always on are coz there are a multitude of sick people in a small amount of space so air is very much needed.
Let baby sweat it out.
