温暖的天气会减缓冠状病毒吗?以下是专家们的看法
流感通常会这样——冠状病毒会步其后尘吗?
现在是四月，你知道这意味着什么:春天来了，天气开始变暖，这很糟糕季节性流感病毒就会开始逐渐消失。这些都是好消息，但是我们正在处理的另一种病毒呢?随着春天的临近，气温开始上升，sars - cov -2病毒将2019年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)也受到影响?
不幸的是，没有人确切知道——就连专家似乎也无法就温暖的天气是否会减缓冠状病毒的传播达成一致。
根据一篇新的文章国家地理在美国，导致流感或较温和冠状病毒(是的，一共有七种病毒会影响人类，有些病毒比其他病毒少得多)的病毒通常会在较温暖的月份消退，这是由于一种被称为“季节性”的概念，也就是根据一年中的时间可预测的上升和下降。这种季节性还与某些病毒对高温和湿度的反应有关，此外，当温度上升时，人们在病毒更容易传播的室内待的时间减少了。
然而，由于SARS-CoV-2是如此的新，没有办法确定该病毒是否会经历与其他病毒相同的季节性。马里兰大学医学院(University of Maryland School of Medicine)的博士后斯图尔特·韦斯顿(Stuart Weston)向该杂志解释说:“我希望它能显示出季节性，但这很难知道。”该病毒正在马里兰大学医学院进行积极的研究。
Maciej f·博尼宾夕法尼亚州立大学的生物学副教授，也指出费城调查报两者之间有一个主要的区别新型冠状病毒流感:免疫虽然我们中的许多人已经建立了对流感的免疫力，但这种新疾病并非如此。基本上，SARS-CoV-2遇到的是“完全易感”的美国人群。他解释说:“我们不能仅仅因为快到春天、天气变暖就摆脱困境。”
不过，一些专家显然更加乐观。根据Jeremy Brown医学博士的说法，他是美国国立卫生研究院紧急护理研究办公室的主任，同时也是《流感:治愈历史上最致命疾病的百年狩猎与流感类似，COVID-19在较温暖的温度下不会轻易存活。他说:“随着春季气候变暖，病毒无法耐受的条件，COVID-19将慢慢消退。健康．“今年的春天将非常受欢迎。”
一些新的研究，特别是麻省理工学院科学家的早期分析报告称，大多数冠状病毒病例都是在气温较低(37.4至62.6华氏度之间)的地区传播的。相反，虽然南半球国家(和夏季中期)报告了冠状病毒病例，但迄今为止，温度超过64.4华氏度的地区的病例占全球病例的比例不到6%。
4月7日发表的一篇评论国家科学、工程和医学研究院(NAS)无论如何都无法提供清晰的信息。根据美国国家科学院的说法，有一些数据支持在更温暖和更潮湿的气候中病毒疾病的病例减少，但没有一项研究是没有限制的。报告称:“考虑到目前处于‘夏季’气候的国家，如澳大利亚和伊朗，正在经历病毒快速传播，不应假设其他地方的湿度和温度增加会导致病例减少。”
美国国家科学院得出结论，除天气和湿度外，还有许多因素可能在SARS-CoV-2的人际传播中发挥作用，并指出，对当前大流行的进一步研究可能有助于了解气候的影响。
底线:没有人确切知道COVID-19将如何应对美国的温度上升，这意味着你绝对不应该因为外面变暖就开始放松警惕。
相反，专家们认为每个人都应该继续遵循世界卫生组织推荐的预防措施疾病控制和预防中心，包括:避免与病人密切接触;清洗和消毒经常接触的物体和表面;经常用肥皂和水洗手至少20秒，尤其是在上完厕所和吃饭前。
截至发稿时，这篇报道中的信息是准确的。然而，随着围绕COVID-19的形势继续发展，一些数据可能自发布以来发生了变化。在《健康》杂志努力使我们的故事尽可能最新的同时，我们也鼓励读者通过使用疾病预防控制中心，谁以及当地的公共卫生部门作为资源。
