The outbreak of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected the lives of people all over the world. It is particularly urgent and important to analyze the epidemic spreading law and support the implementation of epidemic prevention measures. It is found that there is a moderate to high correlations between the number of newly diagnosed cases per day and temperature and relative humidity in countries with more than 10,000 confirmed cases worldwide. In this paper, the correlation between temperature/relative humidity and the number of newly diagnosed cases is obvious. Governments can adjust the epidemic prevention measures according to climate change, which will more effectively control the spread of COVID-19.
2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的爆发影响了全世界人民的生活。分析传染病的传播规律,支持传染病防控措施的实施尤为紧迫和重要。在全球确诊病例超过 1 万例的国家中,发现每日新增确诊病例数与温度和相对湿度之间存在中度至高度相关性。本研究中,温度/相对湿度与新增确诊病例数之间的相关性明显。政府可以根据气候变化调整防疫措施,这将更有效地控制 COVID-19 的传播。
