Data from Chicago confirm the end of flu season coincides with the beginning of pollen season. More importantly, the end of flu season also coincides with onset of seasonal aerosolization of mold spores. Overall, the data suggest bioaerosols, especially mold spores, compete with viruses for a shared receptor, with the periodicity of influenza-like illnesses, including COVID-19, a consequence of seasonal factors that influence aerosolization of competing species.
来自芝加哥的数据证实，流感季节的结束与花粉季节的开始相吻合。更重要的是，流感季节的结束也与霉菌孢子季节性雾化的开始相吻合。总体而言，数据表明生物气溶胶，尤其是霉菌孢子，与病毒竞争共同受体，而包括新冠肺炎在内的类流感疾病的周期性是影响竞争物种雾化的季节性因素的结果。
