Abstract

The severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) is affected by meteorological parameters such as temperature and humidity. It is also observed that people having asthma are at risk for SARS. Therefore, it is of interest to report the effect of environmental, economic, and health factors on the spread of CoVid-19. We used data reporting CoVid-19 cases from 24 cities in eight different countries for this analysis. Data was analyzed using multiple linear regressions between these parameters. Data shows that temperature has effects on CoVid-19. A one-degree rise in temperature causes a -0.19 decrease in CoVid-19 cases per million people (log natural value per million populations). The effect of humidity is not significant at a p value of 0.26. Moreover, one-unit increase in asthma and GDP cases per million people show 0.06 and 0.46 increases in CoVid-19 cases, respectively.

Summary

Introduction

The Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Caused CoVid-19 during the late 2019 in China [1]. Data shows that the virus affects millions of people with thousands of death throughout the world [2]. CoVid-19 is a serious public health problem worldwide [3]. Data shows that SARS gradually declined with the onset of warm weather during July 2020 [4]. A sharp upswing or lessening in the environmental temperature associated with the cold air outbreak led to an escalation of SARS [5]. SARS-CoV-2 and other closely associated corona viruses, such as Ebola and influenza, have associations with meteorological factors [6].
