摘要

根据世界卫生组织(世卫组织)的数据,老年人和有合并症的人最容易感染COVID-19。因此,弱势群体面临的挑战和威胁需要有针对性的干预措施。虽然公共卫生监测方法最近取得了进展,以满足用户的信息需求,但传染病数据的数量和复杂性都有所增加,导致越来越难以促进与公众进行风险沟通,决策者也越来越难以采取知情措施保护公众健康。此外,专门针对达沃地区弱势人群的COVID-19时空疾病监测战略的实施此前从未探索过。本文利用地理空间工具调查了2020年3月3日(最早记录的发病日期)至2021年8月31日期间达沃地区的COVID-19发病率。这些变量通过地形图和刻度符号可视化,随后通过空间自相关和热点分析进行检验。据观察,整个地区的热点都在高密度地区。由于病例高度集中,这些地区存在更大的感染风险。然而,在偏远的城市发现了高病死率,在这些城市,获得COVID-19医疗设施是一个难题。在COVID-19环境和未来类似COVID-19的疾病爆发中,本研究的结果可能为政府办公室和其他相关机构提供见解,以改善医疗保健系统和计划,例如提供和启动适合社区弱势群体的量身定制的隔离和咨询机制。

Retrospective Spatial Analysis of the COVID-19 Threat to the High-risk Population in Davao Region, Philippines from March 2020 to August 2021
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the elderly and people with comorbidities are most vulnerable to COVID-19 infection. With this, the challenges and threats posed to the vulnerable population require targeted interventions. While public health surveillance methods had developed recent advances to meet users’ information needs, the volume and complexity of infectious disease data had increased, resulting in increasing difficulty to facilitate risk communication with the public and for decision-makers to make informed measures to protect the public’s health. Moreover, the implementation of COVID-19 spatiotemporal disease surveillance strategies specifically targeting the vulnerable population in the Davao Region had been previously unexplored. This paper investigated the COVID-19 incidence in the Davao Region from 03 Mar 2020, the earliest recorded date of onset, to 31 Aug 2021 using geospatial tools. The variables were visualized through choropleth maps and graduated symbols, and subsequently examined through spatial autocorrelation and hotspot analysis. Hotspots across the region were observed to be in high-density areas. These areas pose greater risks of infection due to the presence of a high concentration of cases. However, high case fatality rates were found in far-flung municipalities where access to COVID-19 healthcare facilities is a dilemma. In the COVID-19 setting and future disease outbreaks similar to COVID-19, results from this study may provide insights to government offices and other related agencies to improve healthcare systems and programs such as providing and initiating tailor-fitted isolation and consultation mechanisms appropriate to the vulnerable population in a community.
