Sustainability Factors in the Face of COVID-19 in the State of Puebla, Mexico

Abstract

This document aims to review the components of sustainability in the face of the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the State of Puebla, Mexico, which, currently, occupies the eighth place (out of 32) of incidence of the disease caused by this virus. Since more than a year after the first case of this disease in this federal entity, it is determined to study the active cases, that is, those that have presented the disease in the last 14 days. To detect these components, a Poisson count regression is performed for the active cases for the three regions into which the federative entity is divided. Two dates are taken as a sample for this study, October 28, 2020, and January 28, 2021, i.e., before and after the December holidays. Within the results, it is verified that not all the components are significant from one region to another. It is concluded, on the one hand, that the presence of health institutions has helped to reduce the spread of the COVID-19 and, on the other hand, the need for more natural areas has been a natural inhibitor for this sickness.
