A critical review of Tosepu et al. (2020a) "Correlation between weather and Covid-19 pandemic in Jakarta, Indonesia" identifies five questions about the data, analysis, and interpretation of their results. These questions are the number of days and dates of data that go into the analysis, interpretation of the "rapid increase" in COVID-19, 0 °C values of temperature suspected to be missing data, no time lag between the weather on the day of infection and the date the case was recorded in the database, and the significance of their results. The scientific community would benefit from reading answers to the five questions from Tosepu et al.
对 Tosepu 等人(2020a)的《雅加达,印度尼西亚的天气与新冠疫情相关性研究》的批判性回顾,发现了关于他们数据、分析和结果解释的五个问题。这些问题是进入分析的数据的天数和日期、对 COVID-19 的“快速增长”的解释、疑似缺失数据的 0°C 温度值、感染当天的天气与数据库中记录病例日期之间的无时间滞后以及他们的结果的显著性。科学界将从 Tosepu 等人对这五个问题的回答中受益。
