ObjectiveWe aim to study the relationship between occupation distribution within each county and COVID-19 cumulative incidence and vaccination rate in the United States. MethodsWe collected county-level data from January 22, 2020 up to December 25, 2021. We fit multivariate linear models to find the relationship of the percentage of people employed by 23 main occupations. ResultsCounties with more health-related jobs, office support roles, community service, sales, production and material moving occupations had higher COVID-19 cumulative incidence. During the uptick of the "Delta" COVID variant (stratified period July 1-Dec 25), counties with more transportation occupations had significantly more COVID-19 cumulative incidence than before. SignificanceUnderstanding the association between occupations and COVID-19 cumulative incidence on an ecological level can provide information for precision public health strategies for prevention and protecting vulnerable workers. Impact StatementWe used data from US Census and COVID-19 data to explore the association between occupations and COVID-19 cumulative incidence and vaccination rate on an ecological level, which can provide information for precision public health strategies for prevention of spread of disease and protecting vulnerable workers.
