In the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic, and mostly taking a broad perspective, it is clearly relevant to study environmental factors that could affect eventual future outbreaks due to coronaviruses and/or other pathogenic microorganisms. In view of that, the authors of this manuscript review the situation of SARS-CoV-2 and other main pathogenic microorganisms in the environment, focusing on Galicia and Spain. Overall, in addition to showing local data, it is put in evidence that, summed to all efforts being carried out to treat/control this and any other eventual future epidemic diseases, both at local and global levels, a deep attention should be paid to ecological/environmental aspects that have effects on the planet, its ecosystems and their relations/associations with the probability of spreading of eventual future pandemics.
在当前 COVID-19 大流行的背景下,从更广泛的角度来看,研究可能影响未来冠状病毒和/或其他致病微生物爆发的环境因素显然是相关的。有鉴于此,本文作者回顾了 SARS-CoV-2 及其他主要致病微生物在环境中的情况,重点关注加利西亚和西班牙。总的来说,除了展示当地数据外,还可以明显看出,除了所有正在开展的努力,无论是在地方层面还是全球层面,都要对影响地球、其生态系统及其与未来任何潜在流行病传播概率的关系/关联的生态/环境方面给予高度关注,以应对这种情况和任何其他潜在的未来传染病。
