The scorching heat of the sun can reduce the risk of death from corona, the researchers claim

New Delhi, dated 13 April 2021, Tuesday

The second wave of the corona is becoming more deadly and howling. Vaccination is being carried out to prevent corona.

Research conducted in Scotland in the midst of this situation claims that where there is high fever, the number of deaths from corona is lower. Researchers at the University of Edinburgh say that the sun's heat, especially the ultraviolet rays it contains, reduces the risk of death from corona.

The research compared deaths in about 2,500 rural areas in the United States. In which the researchers found that where the amount of ultraviolet rays was higher, the risk of death from covid was lower. A similar survey was conducted in Britain and Italy, and the findings were almost identical.

The researchers looked at factors that increased the risk of death from the corona virus, such as age, gender, economic and social status, population density, pollution, temperature, and the extent of infection in the local area. Researchers say that exposure to sunlight produces nitrous oxide on the skin. Some lab research has shown that nitrous oxide weakens the corona virus.

Severe heat lowers blood pressure levels and lowers the risk of heart attack. Heart attack is also a factor that increases the death toll from corona.
