Short-term effects of weather parameters on COVID-19 morbidity in select US cities 2020-06-09 .txt text/plain 3490 185 47 Experimental and observational studies demonstrate the influence of meteorological parameters on the seasonal transmission of influenza, human coronavirus (HCoV), and human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), which are often characterized by distinct increases in incident cases and detection frequency in the winter months (Lowen and J o u r n a l P r e -p r o o f 3 in the US. Research on the seasonality and influence of meteorological parameters on COVID-19, such as temperature and specific humidity, can be used to inform the timing of effective interventions to mitigate SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 transmission at the local scale to save countless lives and resources. In this study, we examined whether daily meteorological patterns in humidity, temperature, and solar radiation were associated with the transmission of COVID-19 in U.S. cities that emerged as early hot spots for infection. ./cache/cord-322787-dbtc0bo3.txt ./txt/cord-322787-dbtc0bo3.txt
