The National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) in Nagpur has been conducting research on the relation between the increase in temperature and a decrease in the number of coronavirus cases in the country.
According to the research, due to increased temperatures and humidity in Karnataka and Maharashtra, the number of new cases in both states are coming down.
However, NEERI has also said that social distancing is proving to be more effective than the temperatures and that people should keep following it in order to avoid the spreading of the virus.
Experts have been saying that the number of new cases will be coming down by mid-May, which is what everyone in India is hoping for.
