¿Influyen tiempo y clima en la distribución del nuevo coronavirus (SARS CoV-2)? Una revisión desde una perspectiva biogeográfica

Abstract: El 11 de marzo de 2020, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) declaró pandemia global el brote de la enfermedad COVID-19, producida por el nuevo coronavirus SARS CoV-2. En este artículo se efectúa una revisión de las contribuciones científicas publicadas hasta la fecha que relacionan las condiciones atmosféricas con la distribución del SARS CoV-2. La mayor parte de ellas concluyen que existe cierta influencia del tiempo atmosférico y/o el clima en la distribución y el progreso de la COVID-19. En concreto, … Show more

“…Many studies suffer from inadequate research designs that do not address critical issues such as brief time series, serial and spatial autocorrelation, clustering, spurious correlations, problems of multicollinearity and inadequate analysis scales ( Carlson et al, 2020a ; Chipperfield et al, 2020 ; Malanson, 2020 ; Mecenas et al, 2020 ). These issues make it difficult to isolate a natural effect of atmospheric conditions on disease spread from any other effects, including potential artefacts derived from observed prevalence, spatial dependence, temporal dependence and human geography ( Gutiérrez-Hernández and García, 2020 ). Clearly, more research is necessary to clarify the modes of virus transmission, evolution, mutation, and direct and indirect contagion mechanisms ( Eslami and Jalili, 2020 ).…”

“…In contrast, models based on genuine direct effects of atmospheric variables on environmentally mediated transmission routes have clearly failed to predict disease progression when projected in spatial-temporal contexts other than those in which they were fitted . Different review papers also questioned the evidence of significant genuine effects of atmospheric conditions on disease incidence ( Brassey et al, 2020 ; Briz-Redón and Serrano-Aroca, 2020b ; Gutiérrez-Hernández and García, 2020 ; Mecenas et al, 2020 ). Lack of control of relevant social variables closely related to weather and methodological inconsistencies are frequently cited as the primary sources erroneous conclusions ( Gutiérrez-Hernández and García, 2020 ).…”

“…afectadas (Gutiérrez-Hernández & García, 2020;Ma et al, 2020;Sajadi et al, 2020). Los resultados concluyen que en la mayoría de las regiones de climas subtropicales y de tipo mediterráneo alcanzaron su máxima difusión en los meses más fríos y secos, pero en las regiones tropicales esto ocurrió bajo condiciones cálidas y húmedas.…”

“…The seasonal risk has been confirmed by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control [ECD, 2020]: the number of COVID-19 deaths in Europe, as of 29 December 2020, shows a marked peak in April, a flat minimum over summer and then a sharp rise starting from October. However, even in cases where seasonality is evident, the complete mechanism has not been clarified, especially for diseases transmissible person-to-person [Shek and Lee, 2003;Lofgren et al, 2007;Chan et al, 2011;Fisman, 2012;Alvarez-Ramirez and Meraz, 2020;Chen et al, 2020;Gutierrez-Hernandez and Garcia, 2020;Moriyama et al, 2020].…”

“…The above factors, alone or in synergism, are supported by reasonable explanations, correlations and statistical calculations. Some researchers [Fisman, 2012;Gutierrez-Hernandez and Garcia, 2020] agree that cool and dry environments are most frequently related to the virus diffusion, but their feeling is that there are only indications, rather than scientific evidence, i.e. atmospheric conditions may explain a limited part of the dynamics of viral affections.…”
