As a result, people living in developed countries tend to build up high viral load in their nasal cavity and nasopharynx. These factors indicate a strong association between high viral load and poor ventilation, which, in turn, leads to high mortality from COVID-19 in developed Western nations. In this article, we have tried to explain that poor ventilation and subsequent buildup of high viral load could be a reason for such a drastic difference in mortality rates among these two groups of countries. 2 These studies suggest an association of high viral load in nasal cavity and nasopharynx with the severity of the disease. For this reason, the viral load in the nasal cavity and the nasopharynx could be lower and result in a less severe disease.	./cache/cord-269871-w41o1krr.txt	./txt/cord-269871-w41o1krr.txt
