Variation in Risk of COVID-19 Infection and Predictors of Social Determinants of Health in Miami–Dade County, Florida

PEER REVIEWED

Map A shows the census block groups in Miami-Dade County that have high rates of COVID-19 compared with all other census block groups in the county. Map B is the same map as A but at a larger geographic area of zip codes. This zip code–level map was used to estimate rates at the census block group level because COVID-19 data are only reported at larger geographies, such as zip codes or cities.
