Abstract

This paper shows the associations between the COVID-19 spread and meteorological variables such as rainfall, temperature, humidity, and wind speed. The daily effective reproduction number of COVID-19 is estimated from the actual COVID-19 of the DOH using the delay SIR model and differentiable physics simulation. Multiple linear regression is used to determine the association between the effective reproduction number and the meteorological variables.
