In the three-year span of SARS-CoV-2 infections, many influencing factors remain unclear, including its seasonality. Despite numerous studies, findings on seasonal patterns vary over time and location, necessitating further investigations, particularly in Africa, where the low number of cases was surprising, to avoid a looming health shock of the pandemic on the continent. This study aims to explore SARS-CoV-2 seasonality across three climate zones.
