I have this Crazy idea. Tell me I am wrong and why ??? "Covid is spreading much faster in Metros World wide as there is much less pollution from automobile exhaust in the atmospheres "
Ved: Actually you are very likely right. Covid-19 spreads in air, and if the latter is cleaner, it is propagated easily. With more pollution, they act as impediments to covid's spread.
Rohin: Didn't understand.. did you mean non metros ? As metros it is spreading faster and there is plenty of pollution too in metros
Harwant: This analysis is similar to saying earth is flat
Madhu and Me:
It is true that Covid is spreading faster in metros. Look for evidence.. wonderful topic for research indeed. Carry on
Me: Every one is arguing that every little shitty thing that happens on earth is due to climate change. Using the same analogy Covid is increasing and Air Pollution is decreasing so an illogically logical conclusion is that Covid is increasing as there is less pollution
M: Proceed logically.. leaving no room for doubt. Collect evidence. Go for all possible counter - evidences, the span of your study should more global... wide expanse and based on absolutely accurate data
Me: I am more a farmer today than a scientist and I do not believe in statistical analysis to arrive at conclusions. This is what economists do and are wrong most of the time as Financial changes do not follow logic
MADHU: You are correct. I thought Your Covid.. inference was very interesting.Perhaps evdence and data will facilitate its universal acceptance. I was wrong, Ram da, but your Idea is capable of opening new vistas of thoughts , am sure.
Me: If you remember my sister got her PhD on Climate Change and I am always bullying her
MADHU: I remember her almost every 4/5 days as I am myself genuinely interested .

Chiku: More intense people contact and less social distancing. I think the chain of linkages is that air pollution causes more respiratory problems, which in turn creates scope for pathogens like Covid.
