ABSTRACT
To evaluate the impact of socioeconomic statusï¼population mobilityï¼prevention and control measures on the early-stage coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) development in major cities of China. The rate of daily new confirmed COVID-19 cases in the 51 cities with the largest number of cumulative confirmed cases as of February 19ï¼2020 (except those in Hubei province) were collected and analyzed using the time series cluster analysis. It was then assessed according to three aspectsï¼that is, socioeconomic statusï¼population mobilityï¼and control measures for the pandemic. According to the analysis on the 51 citiesï¼4 development patterns of COVID-19 were obtainedï¼including a high-incidence pattern (in Xinyu)ï¼a late high-incidence pattern (in Ganzi)ï¼a moderate incidence pattern (in Wenzhou and other 12 cities)ï¼and a low and stable incidence pattern (in Hangzhou and other 35 cities). Cities with different types and within the same type both had different scores on the three aspects. There were relatively large difference on the COVID-19 development among different cities in Chinaï¼possibly affected by socioeconomic statusï¼population mobility and prevention and control measures that were taken. Thereforeï¼a timely public health emergency response and travel restriction measures inside the city can interfere the development of the pandemic. Population flow from high risk area can largely affect the number of cumulative confirmed cases.
