Highlights
The effects of sociodemographic determinants on COVID-19 incidence were spatially modelled.
4 out of 12 sociodemographic variables were influential predictors of COVID-19 incidence rates.
MGWR model explained 71% of the spatial variations of COVID-19 incidence rate.
Spatial modelling of COVID-19 can be used to guide vital preventative and mitigation measures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
