The weather has almost no direct influence on the spread of COVID-19, according to a study from the University of Texas published last month in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. The study, which was reviewed in the Nov. 2 issue of Science Daily, shows influences human behavior, however. We get more colds and flu in winter because we spend more time inside and in poor ventilation, allowing airborne viruses the opportunity to spread person to person.
COVID-19 results have been different because we have behaved differently due to the various levels of lockdown. The study indicated traveling and spending time away from home have been the top two contributing factors to COVID-19 growth. The researchers said their findings are significant because the data were analyzed using actual humans living their lives rather than making assumptions from laboratory experiments.
