JUE Insight: The geographic spread of COVID-19 correlates with the structure of social networks as measured by Facebook

Theresa Kuchler et al.

Summary: The use of aggregated data from Facebook shows that COVID-19 tends to spread more easily in regions with stronger social network connections. Areas that have more social ties to early COVID-19 hotspots in the U.S. and Italy had a higher number of confirmed cases by the end of March. These relationships remain significant even after taking into account geographic distance, population density, and demographics. The study suggests that social connectedness data from online platforms can be valuable for epidemiologists and others in predicting the spread of communicable diseases like COVID-19.

Development of Social Support Networks by Patients With Depression Through Online Health Communities: Social Network Analysis

Yingjie Lu et al.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of user attributes on the formation of informational and emotional support networks in online depression communities, finding significant effects of reciprocity and transitivity on both networks.

Newcomers were less likely to receive emotional support. Additionally, there was a significant entrainment effect between the two networks.
