To date, many strategies have been executed to combat the COVID-19 disease, including provision of good ventilation in buildings reduce spread virus. Open or semi-open space with air exchange between indoor and outdoor provides better condition compared enclosed mechanical ventilation. However, design public buildings, especially shopping malls hot humid climate are mostly enclosed, high usage air-conditioning systems. Due situation, it is found that typical approach mall needs be revised improved. Hence, this study conducted intention derive an initial idea regarding new a able less dependent on system. The method for preliminary semi-structured interview three respondents possess experience involving projects, namely architect engineer. findings from show all agreed systems should implemented malls. They also emphasized located climate, merely natural impractical, providing thermal comfort users. recommended hybrid ventilation, which combines This significant as encourages other studies related design, climate.

Characteristics of the urban environment (e.g., building density and road network) can influence spread transmission coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) within cities, especially in high-density high-rise built environments. Therefore, it is necessary to identify key attributes environments enhance modelling COVID-19. To this end, case studies for testing development were performed two densely populated Chinese cities with high-rise, (Hong Kong Shanghai).The investigated environmental features included 2D 3D morphological indices sky view factor, floor area ratio, frontal density, height width coverage ratio), socioeconomic demographic population), public service points-of-interest bus stations clinics). The effects on infection rate are notable communities. As spatial scale becomes larger, effect factors ratio) more notable. several ratio population density) at different scales be considered when risk findings study clarify how applied predict infectious diseases. This knowledge used develop effective planning strategies prevent control epidemics ensure healthy cities.

Epidemics are dangerous and difficult to prevent control, especially in urban areas. Clarifying the correlation between COVID-19 Outbreak Frequency spatial environment may help improve cities’ ability respond such public health emergencies. In this study, we firstly analyzed distribution characteristics of by correlating geographic locations epidemic-affected neighborhoods city Beijing with time point onset. Secondly, created a geographically weighted regression model combining external environmental elements city. Thirdly, different grades study area were classified according clustering analysis results. Finally, internal was investigated using binomial logistic model. The yielded following (i) Epidemic outbreak frequency evidently correlated environment, among building density, volume ratio, density commercial facilities, service transportation facilities positively Frequency, while water greenery coverage negatively it. (ii) differed. House price number households low-end neighborhoods, mid-end neighborhoods. order achieve justice, society should strive address inequality phenomena income gaps residential differentiation, promote fair environments.

This paper reports the structure of grey space and number cases deaths throughout COVID-19 pandemic (from March 2020 to June 2023) in 66 city counties Poland. Three main components urban (built-up areas, transport industrial areas) potential physical distance between residents open – was determined. The total covered entire period (totalling 1,214 days) identified. incidence mortality density rates case fatality ratio were calculated. Simple multiple linear regression models developed predict quantitative characteristics independent size. Within spaces cities, average 17.7 m several times greater than that closed (1.5–2.0 m), which significantly reduced risk infection. Strong relationships observed deaths. coefficient determination (R2) for these eight groups by population 0.90 0.88 (significance level p = 0.001). study contributes understanding how based on space, might have influenced course during pandemic. These findings can be applied planning antiviral protection implementing future multilevel restrictions aimed at reducing reproduction SARS-CoV-2 cities various sizes.

Since 2019, COVID-19 has triggered a renewed investigation of the urban environment and disease outbreak. While results have been inconsistent, it observed that quantity green spaces (UGS) is correlated with risk COVID-19. However, spatial pattern largely ignored, especially on community scale. In high-density communities where difficult to increase UGS quantity, could be crucial predictive variable. Thus, this study investigated relative contribution patterns at scale using random forest (RF) regression model based (n = 44) in Wuhan. Findings suggested 8 indicators can explain 35% COVID-19, four metrics contributed most were core, edge, loop, branch whereas least. The potential mechanisms between are discussed, including influence space residents' social distance environmental factors community. This offers new perspective optimizing for public health sustainable city design combat pandemics inspire future research specific relationship therefore help establish pandemics.

The use of social media has played a significant role in influencing individuals' perceptions community resilience, particularly the face global disasters.The study focuses on city Harbin northeastern China to examine public responses pandemic and assess perceived resilience regions severely affected by recurrent epidemics spatio-temporal context using data.The results show that urban centers, characterized high population density well-developed infrastructure, had highest level concern about epidemic.In addition, users associated with universities research institutions showed positive attitudes towards epidemic.Public reactions were most pronounced during periods strict prevention control measures, an increase out-break-related tweets prevalence negative sentiment.The highlights differences between people from different backgrounds impact epidemic related measures aspects daily life.Based findings, policy are proposed improve preparedness, covering both physical infrastructure human factors.This contributes deeper understanding Chinese provides valuable insights for planning management underdeveloped regions.
