What is it about?
The impact of environmental variables on coronavirus disease (COVID-19) spread varies between regions. The two meteorological variables that are most likely to affect the distribution of COVID-19 have significant latitude patterns, which means that in areas with higher climate temperatures, the temperature range for the maximum spread of COVID-19 is higher, while in areas with lower climate temperatures, the temperature for the maximum spread of COVID-19 is lower.

Why is it important?
Climate change has altered life's living environment; humans seem to be able to adapt to climate change within a certain range. This adaptability seems to be human talent, but how about a coronavirus? Perhaps the latitude pattern of COVID-19 indicates that the virus also has the ability to adapt to climate change, even more so than humanity.
Perspectives
The complete cessation of COVID-19 pandemic requires everyone's efforts.
