If the humidity is higher than the temp you will get a respiratory infection. The heat should be higher than 80 for a sick baby. @Tom can confirm this.

Not accurate. Temp should be 80 degrees F or higher. Humidity should be 80% or higher. Its fine if the temp at night drops to 80F and the humidity rises to 99%. Its not a problem for humidity to be higher or lower than the temp, but both should be over 80. It could be a problem if the temp dropped to 68F and the humidity was high for a tropical species.

Higher temps of 85+ 24/7 are helpful for babies fighting sickness.
