Title Researchers suggest range of pleasant temperatures is associated with fewer COVID-19 cases Degree of recognition International Media name/outlet Boston Globe Media type Print Country/Territory United Kingdom Date 1/02/22 Description David M. Schultz, a professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at The University of Manchester, said, “It’s an interesting result, one that has been seen in at least one previous study showing a minimum in transmission at moderate temperatures.”
“I’ve long suspected that the relationship between COVID and weather was not a straight line, and this study provides some nice evidence to that result,” said Schultz, who co-authored a review published in December of 158 studies of the possible links between weather and COVID-19.
“The study appears to avoid some of the pitfalls of previous studies, but the nature of the weather and COVID-19 relationship always makes these kinds of analyses difficult,” Schultz noted in an e-mail.Producer/Author Martin Finucane URL https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/02/01/nation/researchers-suggest-range-pleasant-temperatures-is-associated-with-fewer-covid-19-cases/ Persons David Schultz
