That's why Coronavirus exploded in the south, "said Harvard Doctor
A spranky grace of hot weather can play a factor in epidemics, according to experts.
As scientists are starting to understand more about Covid-19, it has become clear thatInterior spaces put people at higher risk To contract the virus, especially when they are poorly ventilated. But there is also another known factor likely to increase the risk of spreading the disease and could explain why parts of the country have seenCOVID-19 figures. According to a report inThe Harvard Gazette, medical experts think thatThe air conditioning could be part of why there were crèches of Covid-19 in the south.
Experts believe that increasing temperatures in June have sent more people going toAir-conditioned interior spaces. "While people go inside in hot weather and the fraction of the removal air rises, the risk of infection is quite dramatic"Edward Nardell, MD, Professor at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, saidThe Harvard Gazette.
Nardell found that there was a direct correlation between the epidemic areas and the hot weather, saying that "the states which, in June, already use a lot of air conditioning due to high temperatures are also the places where there is More increased increase in the propagation of COVID-19, suggesting more time inside as temperatures increase. "He also pointed out that ironically, the same risk factor is created during the coldest months. When people run away again inside to stay warm.
Nardell quotes other studies onAir conditioning potentially propagation COVID-19, including a restaurant in Wuhan, China and a building in Hong Kong. TheTHOUGHS OF BAR PATRORS In the southern states documented on social media may have been subjected to the same recirculated aerial conditions over the last month, thereby increasing their probability of exposure to coronavirus.

"Restaurants [and bars] are one of the most dangerous places [because they] useventilation, in which the air conditioning systems are trying to move the air from the room as much as possible "Qingyan Chen, PhD, Professor of Purdue UniversityTransmission of viruses through ventilation, previously saidBetter life. "Thus, the droplets in the restaurants would be uniformly distributed. It's not an excellent scenario."
