Does temperature matter for COVID-19 transmissibility? Evidence across Pakistani provinces

Abstract: The outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has become a global concern that is deteriorating environmental quality and damaging human health. Though some researchers have investigated the linkage between temperature and COVID-19 transmissibility across different geographical locations and over time, yet these studies are scarce. This study aims to bridge this gap using daily temperature and COVID-19 cases (transmissibility) by employing grey incidence analysis (GIA) models (i.e., Deng’s grey incidence analys… Show more

“…The basic idea of GRA is to conclude the degree of relationship between factors by comparing geometrical patterns of data (Javed et al, 2020b;Dong et al, 2018). GRA has been applied for solving supplier selection problems (Diba & Xie, 2019;Yang & Chen, 2006), temperature-disease transmissibility relationship analysis (Irfan et al, 2021), optimization of engineering processes (Obara et al, 2021), evaluations of barriers to university enrollment (Fahim et al, 2021) and healthcare resource factors (Peng et al, 2021), among others. The implementation of GRA then being applied to Grey Relational Grade (GRG) to estimate the count relation of factors (King & Wen, 2007).…”

“…Several countries have imposed lockdowns and curfews to safeguard the public from this novel virus (Kulkarni and Anantharama 2020;Irfan et al 2021). The government of India introduced a countrywide lockdown from 25th March 2020 as a critical move to combat the transmission of the COVID-19 virus.…”
