The aim of this study was to determine the association among temperature, relative humidity, latitude, vitamin D content and comorbidities in the spread of SAR-CoV-2 in Mexico in 2 different waves. The data on SARS-CoV-2 infections and comorbidities were obtained from the Mexican entities with the highest number of positive cases and deaths in the 2 waves that have most damaged the population. Low temperature, high relative humidity, vitamin D deficiency and high percentage of comorbidities were factors that correlated with a high spread of SARS-CoV-2. Interestingly, 73.8% of the population had one of the most common comorbidities that favor the spread of the virus. The high percentage of comorbidities and the deficient concentration of vitamin D were determining factors in the high number of infections and deaths in Mexico. Furthermore, weather conditions could contribute to and alert to the spread of SARS-CoV-2.
本研究旨在确定温度、相对湿度、纬度、维生素 D 含量和合并症之间的关联，以及它们在墨西哥两次不同波次中 SARS-CoV-2 传播中的作用。SARS-CoV-2 感染和合并症的数据来自于两次波次中感染人数和死亡人数最多、对人群影响最大的墨西哥地区。低温、高相对湿度、维生素 D 缺乏以及高合并症比例是与 SARS-CoV-2 高度传播相关的因素。有趣的是，73.8%的人群存在最易导致病毒传播的常见合并症之一。高合并症比例和维生素 D 缺乏浓度是墨西哥高感染率和死亡率的决定因素。此外，天气条件可能会促进 SARS-CoV-2 的传播，并发出传播警报。
