THE ROLE OF THE TERRITORIAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE POPULATION IN THE SPREAD OF COVID-19 DISEASE IN THE BUKHARA REGION

Abstract

The relevance of the topic: The rapid spread of severe acute respiratory coronavirus infection (MERS-CoV-2), the causative agent of COVID-19, has shown the need to determine not only the clinical data on the disease, but also the social characteristics of the disease. In the course of global research, many social characteristics of the COVID-19 disease have been identified. On the other hand, thanks to the analysis of the conducted studies, it is clear that the role of the territorial distribution of the population in the spread of the disease is very important. During this study, it will be possible to determine whether patients belong to the urban or rural population, how widespread COVID-19 disease is in a certain region and the peculiarities of its spread. The high role of the regional distribution of the population in the spread of the disease can be explained by the ease of movement around the world and the availability of various travel options. This is the reason that allowed the new strain of the disease to spread rapidly around the world. Thus, although new SARS-CoV-2 infections are often detected in high-resource countries where statistical data can be sorted, their origin has not been fully studied. What complicates the control of information related to the virus is the lack of systematic statistical monitoring among the rural population.
