In the current study, we applied a Pearson correlation test to public health as well as weather data, in order to assess the linear relationship between COVID-19 mortality rate and the sunlight exposure. For instance in continental metropolitan France, average annual sunlight hours are significantly (for a p-value of 1.532x10 -32 ) correlated to the COVID-19 mortality rate, with a Pearson coefficient of -0.636. Specifically in the context of continental metropolitan France, the correlation between sunlight exposure and SARS-CoV-2 infection will be studied in this article, by using an adjusted Pearson test applied to public health and weather data [13] [14] [15] . ./cache/cord-314884-110nqkej.txt ./txt/cord-314884-110nqkej.txt
