Spatial variability of COVID-19 and its risk factors in Nigeria: A spatial regression method

Taye Bayode et al.

Summary: This study utilizes advanced spatial statistical techniques to examine the burden and risk factors of COVID-19 in Nigeria during the first quarter of its incidence. The findings reveal a significant but marginal cluster of COVID-19 occurrence in Nigeria. A model comparison between ordinary least square and spatial error model suggests that the latter performs better with randomly distributed residuals. Population density, international airport, and literacy ratio are identified as significant predictors. The study also emphasizes the spatial planning implications of the ongoing disease outbreak and promotes a transdisciplinary approach to urban planning practices in Nigeria.

The correlation between socioeconomic factors and COVID-19 among immigrants in Norway: a register-based study

Marte Kjotlpsdal et al.

Summary: The study found that immigrant groups in Norway living in crowded housing and with low income levels had higher rates of COVID-19 notification and related hospitalisation, with correlations to income, education, unemployment, crowded housing, and years of residency. Low educational level and unemployment were associated with an increased number of notified cases.

Regional variation in COVID-19 disparities: connections with immigrant and Latinx communities in US counties

Kate Strully et al.

Summary: This study found that the percentage of foreign-born residents is positively associated with COVID-19 case rate. Adjusted associations for the percentage of Latinx residents are nonsignificant for all counties combined, obscuring heterogeneity. In the Northeast and Midwest, counties with a higher proportion of Puerto Rican residents have higher COVID-19 case rates, while the association with the percentage of Asian residents is nonsignificant after adjusting for the percentage of foreign-born residents. Additionally, the percentage of Black residents is positively and robustly associated with COVID-19 case rate.

The spread of COVID-19 virus through population density and wind in Turkey cities

Hamit Coskun et al.

Summary: The study found that population density and wind speed are important factors in the spread of the COVID-19 virus, while air temperature, humidity, number of sunny days, and air pollution do not have a significant impact on the number of cases. Population density mediates the effect of wind speed on the number of cases.

Population density index and its use for distribution of Covid-19: A case study using Turkish data

Onur Baser

Summary: The study found that cities with higher population density have a faster spread of Covid-19. In the study in Turkey, the elasticity coefficient was calculated to be 0.67, indicating a positive correlation between Covid-19 spread and population density. In addition to population density, the proportion of people over 65, per capita GDP, and the number of health care workers also contributed to case numbers.

The main factors influencing COVID-19 spread and deaths in Mexico: A comparison between phases I and II

Francisco Benita et al.

Summary: This article investigates the geographical spread of COVID-19 cases and deaths across municipalities in Mexico, finding a rapid spread of the virus among municipalities and clusters of infections and deaths shifting from the country's center to other regions. Factors such as income inequality, obesity rates, prevalence of diabetes, and concentration of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) are strongly linked to confirmed cases and deaths regardless of lockdown measures.

Summary: The study found that the variation in COVID-19 incidence rates is mainly influenced by average household size, as well as the percentage of population above 65 and below the poverty line. Additionally, ethnic/racial characteristics are correlated with incidence rates. Population density itself does not have a significantly positive impact on incidence rates.

Mapping community-level determinants of COVID-19 transmission in nursing homes: A multi-scale approach

Summary: This study used spatial modeling to find that certain regions in the US had significantly higher COVID-19 cases and deaths among nursing home residents. Risk factors at the nursing home level included total count of fines, total staffing levels, and LPN staffing levels. County-level or place-based factors such as per-capita income, average household size, population density, and minority composition were significant predictors of COVID-19 cases in nursing homes.

Antonio Borriello et al.

Summary: In the absence of a COVID-19 vaccine, testing, contact tracing, and social restrictions are important strategies to slow down the pandemic. A safe and effective vaccine is the most sustainable option to manage the pandemic. However, vaccine hesitancy can undermine the success of this strategy. The research explores Australian citizens' preferences towards a COVID-19 vaccine and estimates the expected uptake under different scenarios.

Summary: This study examines the relationship between area level deprivation and COVID-19 cases in England and finds a significant association, which reverses over time. The analysis suggests that certain government policies, such as premature easing of restrictions in high case areas and the introduction of a regional tiered system, may have unintended negative consequences on the spread of the pandemic.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted cities, with a strong association found between socioeconomic status and both disease incidence and mortality. People in lower socioeconomic municipalities were less likely to adhere to lockdown measures and faced higher testing delays and positivity rates. This highlights the critical consequences of socioeconomic inequalities on health outcomes.

Summary: The study utilized principal component analysis to visualize the global spread of COVID-19 within the first 90 days, revealing that confirmed cases and deaths were weakly correlated with stringency and GNI per capita. The first two principal components captured around 70% of the data variance, with the first component representing the severity of the pandemic and the second component corresponding to population density and GNI per capita. Multivariate visualization provided standardized comparisons of the situation in 161 countries over the first 90 days of the pandemic.

Are high-density districts more vulnerable to the COVID-19 pandemic?

Summary: The study suggests that density alone is not a risk factor for COVID-19 spread, as seen in the case of Tehran where density did not explain the distribution of cases. Efforts should be made to reduce concerns about living in dense urban environments and encourage lifestyle changes and adherence to public health guidelines. Planners and policymakers are encouraged to continue promoting compact urban forms and use the study's results in developing mechanisms and guidelines for managing future pandemics effectively.
