    Abstract

    Background: The surge of 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID −19) outbreak was turned to a pandemic with hundreds and thousands of cases reported globally. The number of cases dramatically increased from early March 2020. Aim: We assessed the cumulative change in the incidence and case−fatality rate of COVID −19 at global, regional, and national levels from January to March 16, 2020, across 154 affected countries and territories globally. Methods: We collected data of COVID −19 cases using the GitHub repository, that provided support to realtime surveillance information developed by the Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE), Johns Hopkins University, USA.

    • Meteorological factors and Covid-19 incidence in 310 regions across the world Nazrul Islam, Sharmin Shabnam, A Mesut Erzurumluoglu doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.03.27.20045658 Abstract In absence of empirical research data, there has been considerable speculative hypothesis on the relationship between climatic factors (such as temperature and humidity) and the incidence of Covid-19. This study analyzed the data from 311 regions across 116 countries with ≥1 reported case by March 12, 2020, and found that temperature, humidity, and wind speed were inversely associated with the incidence rate of Covid-19 after adjusting for the regional and temporal trend in the incidence of Covid-19, columnar density of ozone, precipitation probability, sea-level air-pressure, and length of daytime. *注,本文为预印本论文手稿,是未经同行评审的初步报告,其观点仅供科研同行交流,并不是结论性内容,请使用者谨慎使用.

    • Case-Fatality Rate and Characteristics of Patients Dying in Relation to COVID-19 in Italy Graziano Onder, MD, PhD1; Giovanni Rezza, MD2; Silvio Brusaferro, MD3 Author Affiliations Article Information JAMA. Published online March 23, 2020. doi:10.1001/jama.2020.4683 Only 3 cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were identified in Italy in the first half of February 2020 and all involved people who had recently traveled to China. On February 20, 2020, a severe case of pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) was diagnosed in northern Italy’s Lombardy region in a man in his 30s who had no history of possible exposure abroad. Within 14 days, many other cases of COVID-19 in the surrounding area were diagnosed, including a substantial number of critically ill patients.1 On the basis of the number of cases and of the advanced stage of the disease it was hypothesized that the virus had been circulating within the population since January.
