American and Canadian researchers have said that the risk of transmission can only decrease by about 1.5 percent for each degree Fahrenheit above 77 degrees Fahrenheit 25 degrees Celsius.
However, researchers in Canada examined the spread of “Covid-19” worldwide in late March at locations with different measures of humidity, latitude, and general health, such as social distance.
Dr. Peter Johny of the University of Toronto said the team found little link between the spread of the infection and temperature or latitude, or only a weak correlation with humidity.
He added that they had conducted a preliminary study that suggested that both latitude and temperature play an important role. But when they repeated the study under stricter conditions, they got the opposite result.
Dr. Johny noted that, in contrast, school closings and other public health measures have been an effective suppression of the Corona virus, adding: “Our findings are directly relevant because many countries, and some Canadian provinces and territories, are considering mitigating or eliminating some of these health interventions. ” general
The study concluded: “Seasonal variation is likely to play a minor role in the Covid 19 epidemic.”
“Summer will not make this go away, it is important that people know this, on the other hand, the more public health interventions in the region, the greater the impact on the slowdown of epidemic growth,” said Professor Dion Jysink, epidemiologist from the University of Toronto and co-author of the study.
