ABSTRACT
What is already known about this topic? The impact of air temperature on varicella has been studied, but there is limited research exploring its effect on varicella by gender and age group. What is added by this report? We conducted a time series analysis to examine the differential effects of air temperature on varicella infection across different demographic groups. Our findings indicate that lower temperatures have a more pronounced influence on varicella incidence among males and children compared to females and adults. What are the implications for public health practice? These findings can assist in identifying populations that are vulnerable to temperature-related varicella and in guiding the implementation of effective measures for varicella control.
