This article explores the relationship between forest cover and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases in Colombia using remote sensing techniques data analysis. The study focuses on CORINE land methodology's five main categories: artificial territory, agricultural territories, forests semi-natural areas, humid water surfaces. research methodology involves several phases of unified method analytical solutions for mining (ASUM-DM). Data COVID-19 are collected from Colombian National Institute Health Advanced Land Observation Satellite (ALOS PALSAR), respectively. is processed QGIS software. results indicate an inverse cases, as evidenced by Pearson's index ρ -0.439 (p-value <0.012). In addition, a negative correlation observed case density one categories. findings this suggest that higher associated with lower numbers Colombia. could potentially inform government organizations policymakers implementing strategies policies conservation inclusion green areas densely populated urban areas.

Earlier studies have examined various factors that may contribute to the contagion rate of COVID-19, such as urban climatic and socioeconomic characteristics. However, there is a lack at township level detailing spatiotemporal settings built environment attributes, especially in context lockdown response global Omicron outbreak. In this study, we extended existing literature by relating initial-stage pandemic conditions with more comprehensive measures environment, including density, diversity, design, distance transit, destination accessibility. The variations from confirmed clusters COVID-19 asymptomatic infected cases before, during, after throughout outbreak were identified geographically using GIS methods 218 township-level divisions across Shanghai during period. We also compared regression results ordinary least-squares regression, weighted temporally regression. Our show (1) among all variables, metro line length, walking accessibility, hotel inn population exhibited positive significance influencing prevalence; (2) spatial temporal evident association between mobility, density-related transmission three phases: pre-lockdown, lockdown, post-lockdown. This study highlights importance targeted public health interventions densely populated areas high demand for transit. It emphasizes transportation network layout accessibility controlling spread infectious diseases specific contexts. By considering these factors, policymakers stakeholders can foster resilience effectively mitigate impact outbreaks, aligning objectives 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The outbreak of COVID-19 quickly spread around the globe, with staggering infection and mortality rates. Given reported benefits greenness to human health, we hypothesized that greener neighbourhoods would suffer less from severity than not. We modelled in South Africa by fitting Generalized Linear Mixed Effects models various socio-demographic data (EVI, i.e., Enhanced Vegetation Index, tree grass covers) collected January 2020 June 2022 at local municipalities, Wards, districts scales. found income level showed a significant negative association prevalence Ward level, suggesting poorer are more susceptible infection. also EVI cover consistently correlation rate, irrespective scale analysis, whereas similar pattern but only scale. Finally, neither EVI, cover, nor severity. Overall, show greater resilience COVID-19, exposure may boost natural killer cells body, thus reinvigorating our defence system against infections. Our results re-enforced need establish preserve greens paces particularly developing world, given their ability buffer COVID-19.

The COVID-19 outbreak in 2020 resulted rapidly rising infection rates with high associated mortality rates. In response, several epidemiological studies aimed to define ways which the spread and severity of can be curbed. As a result, there is steady increase evidence linking greenspaces impact.

Abstract Since the onset of COVID-19 pandemic, researchers mainly examined how socio-economic, demographic, and environmental factors are related to disparities in SARS-CoV-2 infection rates. However, we don’t know extent which racial exposure To address this critical issue, gathered black vs. white records from 1416 counties contiguous United States. For these counties, used 30m-spatial resolution land cover data mappings quantify disparity between people’s two types exposure, including exposures various landscape settings urban development intensities. We found that rates landscapes intensities were significant showed similar patterns. Specifically, less forests outside park, pasture/hay, areas with low medium significantly associated lower Distance was also critical. The positive association strongest within a comfortable walking distance (approximately 400m). Highlights Racial dot map landcover for population-weighted analysis. linked. Forests park most beneficial settings. Urban intensity areas. Landscape 400m buffer distances beneficial.
