▲ ▼ Weather correlation with COVID-19
I see that several politicians, govt. officials mention that new cases of COVID-19 would come down as the global temperature rises owing to seasonal changes. Yet, daily reported cases around the world is growing exponentially even as the temperature rises.
I would like to know the temperature and other weather correlation with the new confirmed cases of COVID-19, I don't think there is yet a visualisation available for that.
Hi AsraBanu, I have plotted the graph of daily confirmed COVID-19 cases against local highest temperature on that day and have recorded the process here - https://abishekmuthian.com/covid-19-temperature-correlation/.
Hi Abishek, Thank you very much! This is exactly what I was looking for and I appreciate including all the steps to arrive at that graph including other observations.
Although getting weather data is very easy (actual historical recorded data might be hard), the reason why one hasn't correlated COVID-19 with temperature and other weather statistics might be to avoid misinformation(as there are plenty).
