The study published in the journal called Science of the Total Environment serves as the first instance of the mechanism by which climate change could have contributed to the emergence of the pandemic-causing virus, SARS-CoV-2. The study shows that there have been large-scale changes over the past century in the type of vegetation present in the southern Chinese Yunnan province and its adjacent regions like Myanmar and Laos.
