Both

Both of them.

However, we must keep in mind that Covid-19 is unlikely to be a meteorit.

It is without any doubt the result of human misconduct and wrong behavior with environment and planet since at leats 5 decades (in fact 2 centuries) of intensive exploitation and hurting of the nature and wasting of natural ressources.

I think both of them

Dear Shno Mustafa Ali,

You are most welcome.

It's a communicable disease indirectly related to environmental disaster.

Yes, Dr. Muhammed Ashraful Alam thanks for your answer.

I think its is a contagion disease that is a result of an environmental/sustainability disaster.

Yes I agree with you Mr Sherif Goubran thanks for your answer

It is a disease leading to environmental disaster.

It has resulted to both effects from my opinion

I agree with sura aldewachi

I think both of them.

It is a contagion disease, bit any spread disease has its environmental effects

Thanks for the valuable answer dear Dr. Sura Aldewachi

Thanks for the valuable answer dear Dr Joan Nyika

Many thanks for your answer dear Dr Anmar Aldewachi

Many thanks for your answer dear Dr Anwar A. Abdulla

Thanks for the valuable answer Dr. Foad Alzoughool

Covid-19 is both environmental health disaster and contagious disease

Thanks for your answer Chinaza Godswill Awuchi

Why could Covid-19 (the disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus) be considered an environmental disaster? Covid-19 only has a direct effect on human health. But what is the direct negative impact on the environment?

Management of wastes that caused by patients with Covid19 cannot regard problem to the environment?Benni Thiebes

Just to avoid confusion: my comment was meant as an honest question because I am not aware of environmental impacts. I am more than happy to be presented with other perspectives and to change mine accordingly!

Waste from Covid patients is of course an issue, however, I reckon that it is not a big one in terms of environmental impact.

I would guess that the pandemic rather has a positive effect on the environment e.g. due to the decrease in traffic (fewer cars, relatively few flights).

Benni Thiebes ،yes of course the virus has positive and negative impacts on the environment but at the end it impact the environment, thanks for your answer dear I appreciate your answers indeed.

We have to regard Covid-19 as a contagious environmental disaster

Yes in this time it is contagious environmental disaster, iam very happy for your answer Dr Chinaza Godswill Awuchi

Contagion

Thanks for your answer and I appreciate your opinion Peter Aguko

The virus that causes Covid-19 allegedly came from a livestock market in Wuhan China, which was definitely from the environment. The virus spreads from person to person in a rapid manner, making it contagious. Therefore the virus is both environmental disaster and contagious

Yes exactly thanks Mr. Chinaza Godswill Awuchi for replying

In my opinion Both

Thanks for your efforts and sharing informations Mr. Abdelkader Dehbi

I affirm that COVID-2019 is a contagious disease, but I think that we can also consider it as an environmental disaster because it involves man as one of the evironmental component that is being highly affected by this pandemic.

Yes, as you mentioned Mr. Osvaldo Brígido Covid19 can consider as a combination of environmental disaster and contagion disease

There are many reports linking the origin of the virus to wildlife. The virus itself is very contagious

Many thanks Mr. Chinaza Godswill Awuchi,.

@ Benni Thiebes,

If we follow your statement:

'' I would guess that the pandemic rather has a positive effect on the environment e.g. due to the decrease in traffic (fewer cars, relatively few flights)''

Then shall we conclude that covid -19 is a big chance for the planet and for humanity?

Is it that the planet will be ''very clean'' when it will be fully populated with covid-19 and with no human beings on it because covid-19 is killing people at an increasing rate worldwide?

Dear Dr. Abderrahmane Kadri your answer is very logical thanks so much

COVID - 19 is more of an environmental issue than a contagion ailment. This is because its origins have been attributed to the closeness of human beings and animals in an urban environment.As the urban environment and landscape decreases, more humans are enclosing unto the animals corridors, which has all the potential to exacerbate occurrence of diseases. COVID 19 is showing us the need for environmental balance.

Iam happy for your reply Mr. Daniel Mutegi Giti

My regards and pleasure for replying Mr. Amer B. Dheyab

Corona flu, it’s a contagious disease we know, when anything happens in epidemic form and its effect, we consider as a disaster, so we could regard Covid19 as an environmental disaster.

mor

e a contagion than a environmental event

Some experts appreciate that when we disrupt ecosystems and species, we risk releasing viruses from their natural hosts, which can affect humans.

According to researcher Sergio Lacambra, 60% of all infectious diseases in humans are transmitted by animals, and this percentage increases to 70%, talking about new contagious diseases. It is directly related to the fact that humans are invading forests that host countless species of animals and, within them, unexplored and potentially new viruses.
