Environmental and climatic impact on the infection and mortality of SARS-CoV-2 in Peru 2020-09-18 .txt text/plain 4344 214 48 In this study, we explored the relationship between the cumulative number of infections and mortality cases with climate (temperature, precipitation, solar radiation, water vapor pressure, wind), environmental data (elevation, NDVI, PM2.5 and NO2 concentration), and population density in Peru. Multiple linear regression models indicate elevation, mean solar radiation, air quality, population density and green cover are influential factors in the distribution of infection and mortality of SARS-CoV-2 in Peru. Although more studies are necessary, the rate of infection and the severity of the diseases seems different for people living in cities at high altitudes, where not only hipoxia is a major factor, but other factors such as air quality, solar radiation, and population density, could play a role in SARS-CoV-2 person-to-person transmission. The main objectives of this study was to explore the relationship between SARS-CoV-2 infection and mortality cases, case-fatality rates with a set of climate (temperature, precipitation, solar radiation, water vapor pressure, and wind), environmental data (elevation, NDVI, PM 2.5 and NO 2 concentration), and population density in Peru. ./cache/cord-326929-ytix4l1o.txt ./txt/cord-326929-ytix4l1o.txt
