Abstract:The outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) has become the focus of attention in the field of urban geography. Built environment, such as the layout of public spaces like transportation hubs and urban open spaces, is an important factor affecting the spread of the epidemic. However, due to the different behavior patterns of different age groups, the intensity and frequency of their use of various built environment spaces may vary. Based on this, we selected patients that were infected, with a non-manip… Show more
“…They found that schools and restaurants were the most visited places. Additionally, Niu et al (2021) found that the effect of land uses on the number of infected people is differentiated by age. For example, shopping centers were a significant factor for zones with a higher number of aged people than zones dominated by younger populations.…”

“…Walkable and physically well-designed sidewalks are associated with a lower number of cases on the neighborhood scale ( Kwok et al, 2021 ; Credit, 2020 ; Tribby and Hartmann, 2021 ; Nguyen et al, 2020 ). However, urban districts with a higher density of transportation facilities such as bus and train stations increased the likelihood of COVID-19 spreading in Tehran ( Razavi-Termeh et al, 2021 ; Khavarian-Garmsir et al, 2021 ), Hong Kong ( Kan et al, 2021 ; Huang et al, 2020 ) Wuhan ( Xu et al, 2022 ; Niu et al, 2021 ) and Huangzhou ( B. Li et al, 2021 ).…”

“…A spatial analysis enabled Nasiri et al [ 40 ] to show that in Iran the number of COVID-19 hospitalised cases were higher in commercial and residential areas. By means of a clustering analysis, Niu et al [ 41 ] inferred that floor area ratio and building density in China are positively correlated with COVID-19 middle-aged and elderly patients. The study by Wheeler et al [ 51 ] analysed the spread of the pandemic among Minnesota (USA) rural counties which were found to host a significant number of COVID-19 hotspots.…”
“…Learning from disasters is essential to guide future resilience-oriented designs [ 15 ], and in the post-pandemic era, both the construction and the built environment sector are expected to develop further a focus on resilience, occupant health, and/or safety [ [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] ]. Numerous settings such as urban areas [ [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] ], long-term care facilities [ [26] , [27] , [28] ], kindergartens [ 29 ], mental care facilities [ 30 ], offices [ 31 , 32 ], and residential buildings [ [33] , [34] , [35] ] have already provided suggestions for future design and spatial adaptations.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
