The Relationship between Weather Conditions and COVID-19 Transmission and Deaths in Visegrád Countries
Since the end of December 2019, COVID-19 has become a worldwide issue, and its transmission and adverse effect on health and socioeconomics has become a global agenda for researchers and policymakers. Concerning this, findings argue that there is a relationship between weather conditions and COVID-19 cases and deaths. However, empirical findings on the relationship and impact of weather conditions and COVID-19 cases and deaths have been given little attention regarding Visegrád (V4) countries. Therefore, this study examines the relationship and impact of climate indicators on new COVID-19 cases and deaths for V4 countries using trend, correlation, and regression analysis. The study found that the average temperature and dew point have a negative and significant correlation with new cases and deaths of COVID-19 in V4 countries. Besides, the rise of both average temperature and dew point has a negative and significant impact on COVID-19 new cases and deaths in V4 countries. However, average humidity has a positive and significant correlation with new cases and deaths of COVID-19 in V4 countries. Moreover, the rise in humidity levels lead to an increase in new cases and deaths of COVID-19 in V4 countries.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Climate Change: Impacts and Responses seeks to create an interdisciplinary forum for discussion of evidence of climate change, its causes, its ecosystemic impacts, and its human impacts. The journal also explores technological, policy, strategic, and social responses to climate change.
