In this retrospective study, we attempted to conduct an exploratory analysis looking at the association between environment conditions (including ambient pollutants and meteoroidal parameter) and COVID-19 incidence/mortality in Wuhan, given a city-wide lockdown and varying pollution/meteorological data throughout the entire study period. In the current study, although the NO 2 level was constantly lower than the US EPA standards (United States Environmental Protection Agency, 2016), our data revealed that COVID-19 incidence were highly correlated with the ambient NO 2 concentration. The correlation between the COVID-19 incidence and three ambient air pollution along with five meteorological parameters Jan 26 th to Feb 29 th in 2020 in Wuhan and XiaoGan, China. ./cache/cord-349645-6o8773c5.txt ./txt/cord-349645-6o8773c5.txt
