This study was aimed to investigate the incidences of COVID-19 in the Banias and Alkadmos areas in Tartus, Syria, in 2021. Methodology and results: Our data were obtained from the records of Banias and Alkadmos hospitals. The results were inferred by analysing data for 1026 COVID-19 patients. About 58.4% of total cases were among males and 41.6% were among females. Most patients were living in rural areas; 73% compared to 27% in urban ones.

The same was noticed with the mortality rate, with 14.5% of total cases and 66.4% of them were older than 65. Conclusion, significance and impact of study: Our study indicated that age and gender are risk factors for contracting COVID-19.
