Variability of COVID-19 mortality in Honduras: influence of sociodemographic factors

Differences in COVID-19 mortality were found between the different departments, partly explained by sociodemographic factors. The results of this study show that, in addition to individual characteristics, population-level socioeconomic and educational factors influence COVID-19 mortality. Multilevel analysis is highly useful for providing evidence to improve approaches in future pandemics.

Abstract

Differences in COVID-19 mortality were found between the different departments, partly explained by sociodemographic factors. The results of this study show that, in addition to individual characteristics, population-level socioeconomic and educational factors influence COVID-19 mortality. Multilevel analysis is highly useful for providing evidence to improve approaches in future pandemics.
