Climate Change Trends and Their Impact on the Seasonal Upper Respiratory Tract Disease Burden
Sponsor: Barzilai Medical Center
Summary
Investigators assume that global climate changes can influence upper respiratory tract infection peak prevalence, which may have significant clinical implication, for example, by adjusting seasonal Influenzas' vaccine timing. Therefore, the investigators will collect data from electronic medical database about patients tested positive for winter seasonal respiratory tract viruses from 2022 and compare the incidence to the meteorological profile of that season.
