In the term "EPIDEMIOLOGY" (the study of factors affecting disease spread), "demos" refers to POPULATION !
It is the neighborhood characteristics which influenced SARS-CoV-2 transmission, highlighting the role of population-level factors.
2) This study used a statistical method called multilevel modeling to examine how an individual's neighborhood affects their risk of getting COVID-19. They calculated a measure called the median rate ratio (MRR) to quantify the differences in COVID-19 rates between neighborhoods
3) The results showed that neighborhood factors like household size and commuting patterns explained about 40% of the differences in COVID-19 rates across neighborhoods. The remaining differences suggest other neighborhood-level factors play an important role in COVID-19 spread
4) The authors recommend policies targeting social determinants of health at the community level to help reduce these geographic disparities in COVID-19.
