In the current context of the COVID-19 pandemic, researchers are working with health professionals to inform governments to slow the virus's spread. The extant research contribution has been dedicated to examining the impact of climate indicators such as temperature, humidity, and rainfall. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding their combined association between environmental quality and climate indicators to combat COVID-19 in the South American context.
In this study, we collected data for environmental pollution indicators for the South America region, and correlation analysis and wavelet transform coherence were used as the analytical tools.
Empirical estimates conclude that PM, NO, CO, and O are significant factors in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic in South America.
Our findings will serve as policy implications for the state, health officials, and regulators to combat the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak in South America.
在当前新冠疫情的背景下，研究人员正与卫生专业人员合作，为政府提供信息以减缓病毒传播。现有的研究贡献一直致力于考察温度、湿度和降雨等气候指标的影响。然而，在南美洲背景下，关于环境质量与气候指标之间的综合关联对抗击新冠疫情的证据不足。
在本研究中，我们收集了南美洲地区环境污染指标的数据，并将相关分析和小波变换相干性用作分析工具。
实证估计得出，细颗粒物、一氧化氮、一氧化碳和臭氧是南美洲抗击新冠疫情的重要因素。
我们的研究结果将为国家、卫生官员和监管机构抗击南美洲新冠疫情爆发提供政策启示。
