Abstract

A global pandemic known as COVID-19 now threatens public health systems worldwide. The COVID-19 virus is spread by many sources, including environmental factors. Infectious diseases are transmitted and are resistant to certain environmental factors, including temperature, humidity, wind speed and population density. Through preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses, a study on the effects of environmental factors on the spread of COVID-19 cases in Asia was carried out to provide evidence-based knowledge and serve as a basis for health care and preventative guidelines (PRISMA). Search databases like Web of Science (WoS), Scopus and PubMed were used to find the data. A total of 52 full-text papers, 1,780 abstracts and 16 systematic review articles were examined. The results indicate a clear correlation between environmental factors, population density and the occurrence of COVID-19. These findings suggest that environmental factors may play a role in the distribution of COVID-19 in Asia.
