Tempo-spatial dynamics of COVID-19 in Germany: A phase model based on a pandemic severity indicator

Show abstract
While pandemic waves are often analyzed on the national scale, they typically are not distributed evenly in space. This working paper employs a novel approach to analyze the tempo-spatial dynamics of the COVID-19 pandemic for the case of Germany. First, we base the analysis not just on the incidence of cases or mortality but employ a composite indicator of pandemic severity to gain a more robust understanding of the temporal dynamics of the pandemic. Second, we subdivide the pandemic during the years 0f 2020 and 2021 into fifteen phases, each with a coherent trend of pandemic severity. Third, we analyze the spatial patterns predominating in each phase. The resulting tempo-spatial phase model is used to identify explanatory factors for the tempo-spatial patterns identified in the analysis.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
