“…In the context of high-density communities, the discussion around the design of the BE takes on critical significance. Spatial interventions have been a cornerstone in achieving effective epidemic containment, encompassing strategies aimed at isolating infection sources, disrupting transmission pathways, and safeguarding vulnerable populations [71,72]. The conceptual framework, as depicted in Figure 8, illustrates the intricate interplay between containment measures, NPIs, and the BEs of communities.…”

High-density communities have proliferated globally during rapid urbanization. They are characterized by a high population density and limited per capita public spaces, making them susceptible to infectious disease risks. The impact of infectious diseases in these communities, as evident during the COVID-19 pandemic, underscores their vulnerabilities. Yet, research on disease prevention in high-density areas remains limited. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the built environment and the transmission of infectious diseases in high-density urban communities, with a particular focus on the lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic. Utilizing Shenzhen city as a case study, this study collected data on the built environment and epidemic trends and involved a generalized linear regression analysis, aiming to understand the key built environment factors that affect epidemic spread in high-density areas. The results from the study revealed that high-density communities experience higher rates of infectious disease transmission compared to their medium- to low-density counterparts. The significant factors identified include land use mixture and walkability, with land use mixture showing the most substantial impact on infection rates. Through a combination of qualitative analysis and empirical research, we constructed a conceptual framework linking containment measures, non-pharmaceutical interventions, and the built environment. The findings emphasize the significance to focus on the health development of high-density communities and offer valuable insights for tailored urban planning and built environment design. These insights are crucial for promoting the healthy and sustainable transformation of existing high-density communities.

“…This determines the main theme of each COVID-19 map. To fully cover the space scopes that the epidemic impacted on the public life, setting of spatial scales should involve recognized basic unit of urban administration and also the focal place for the epidemic outbreak, spread, and prevention such as country, city, and community (Yang et al 2021). Due to the features of wide urban area and large population density in Shenzhen, the map design which determines the hierarchical scheme of maps' thematic content.…”
