This weekend is giving Australia the very first glance of winter season– will coronavirus get worse?

Crisp temperature levels this weekend are the first sign beach weather condition is well and genuinely on its way out.

The altering of seasons has fuelled speculation across the world about how the weather condition will affect the spread of COVID-19, and whether the pandemic will get worse in Australia where winter is on its method.

And while specialists state it would be a “wonder” if we got away future coronavirus spikes, they say the weather condition has little to do with it.

Is there a link between weather condition and COVID-19?

There have actually been some claims the virus spreads out quicker in winter and slower in summer

However COVID-19 hasn’t been around for long enough for researchers to draw conclusive conclusions about whether temperature level impacts the virus.

Experts informed the ABC talk of a direct link between the weather condition and the spread of the infection was dubious.

Professor Michael Wallach, a professional in infectious illness from the University of Innovation Sydney, says the infection “does not appear to care about the weather condition”.

” I do not think it’s just a matter of warm or cold weather. This virus is extremely good at sending and contaminating human cells,” he stated.

” For previous pandemics, the weather apparently did not have much of an impact.

Transmittable illness epidemiologist Meru Sheel from the Australian National University seconds that.

” It’s a new illness, so we do not know whether there’s a direct link in between the weather condition and COVID-19,” Dr Sheel said.

” Although, the proof would recommend most likely not.”
