Bidirectional association between COVID-19 and the environment: A systematic review

Impacts of exposure to air pollution, radon and climate drivers on the COVID-19 pandemic in Bucharest, Romania: A time series study

“…The most statistically significant negative correlations were observed for surface solar irradiance and daily new COVID-19 confirmed cases and mortality as follows: (rDNC = −0.64, p < 0.01; rDND = −0.62, p < 0.01). The results of the current study were consistent with the outcomes of other studies, emphasizing that the increase in temperature and solar radiation caused a decreasing trend in the COVID-19 incidence cases and deaths ( Srivastava, 2021 ; Rahimi et al, 2021 ; Rosario et al, 2020 ).…”

Correlation between COVID-19 and weather variables: A meta-analysis

“…However, a weak association between COVID-19 and weather variables was found in the available studies 16 , 17 . A bidirectional relationship between COVID-19 and weather variables was also seen in a previous systematic review [ 18 ]. The recent meta-analysis and systematic review result also found a significant association between weather variables and COVID-19 transmission 19 , 20 .…”

Transmission of COVID-19 in Cities with Weather Conditions of High Air Humidity: Lessons Learned from Turkish Black Sea Region to Face Next Pandemic Crisis

“…Moreover, all households remained in their homes unless performing essential work. This decreasing trend confirms that person-to-person transmission, one of the forms of COVID-19 diffusion, plays a critical role in the rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 across cities and countries [2,13,15,49]. The changes in the meteorological indicators show that atmospheric pressure, gust, relative humidity, and wind speed followed constant trends throughout the examined periods.…”
