However, Gustavo added that the study could not obtain any relation amongst the longitude of a location and the Coronavirus spread.
In a analysis paper published in the Evolutionary Bioinformatics, scientists and researchers have identified that the spread of Coronavirus and Covid-19 associated mortality is impacted by the temperature and latitude substantially. The researchers identified that in more than 221 nations of the globe, Coronavirus circumstances and deaths had a correlation with the temperature and latitude, the Indian Express reported.
In a statement released by the University of Illinois College of Agricultural, Consumer & Environmental Sciences senior author of the study Gustavo Caetano-Anollés was quoted as saying that the analysis showed that Coronavirus spread just like a seasonal flu.
Ever considering the fact that the onset of Coronavirus pandemic started in distinctive nations of the globe a section of scientists and researchers have mentioned that the spread of Coronavirus and associated deaths is dependent on the climate circumstances of the location. However, as the virus spread in pretty much all the components of the nation at a gigantic scale, no distinct seasonal pattern of Coronavirus could be observed in distinctive components of the globe, although some nations fared far worse than other nations in terms of the spread and mortality.
As element of the analysis, the authors of the study had relied on epidemiological information collected from more than 221 nations of the globe which had facts about illness incidence, mortality, recovery of patients, active circumstances, testing prices, and hospitalisation of patients amongst other individuals. The researchers collected the information from the period of April 15, 2020. Relying on the statistical procedures, the scientists analysed the information and anticipated that the virus would be least disastrous in warmer nations which are close to the equator.
Gustavo Caetano-Anollés was quoted as saying that the study identified a important relation amongst the spread of Coronavirus and temperature of the location. However, Gustavo added that the study could not obtain any relation amongst the longitude of a location and the Coronavirus spread.
