Resumo: | INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study is to describe the spatio-temporal variations in mortality from COVID-19 within the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA). METHODS: Data referring to the day, month and year, and the place of residence of the people who died from COVID-19 in CABA from March 3 to October 3, 2020 were used. The spatial units were the 48 neighborhoods that make up the CABA and two populations were analyzed (under 60 years and from this age or older). Spatio-temporal scan statistics were used to detect high and low mortality clusters. The percentage of households with Unsatisfied Basic Needs (UBN), as a measure of structural poverty, was compared between neighborhoods belonging to high mortality clusters and neighborhoods belonging to low mortality clusters. RESULTS: The high mortality clusters were located mainly in the southern half of CABA, while the low mortality clusters were located in the west and north of the city. The neighborhoods of high mortality clusters showed higher percentages of households with UBN compared to the neighborhoods belonging to low mortality clusters. DISCUSSION: This study found socio-spatial inequalities in mortality from COVID-19 between neighborhoods in CABA, reflecting a persistent north-south socioeconomic gap for several decades. |

MÉTODOS: Se utilizaron datos referidos al día, mes y año, y el lugar de residencia de las personas fallecidas por COVID-19 en la CABA desde el 3 de marzo al 3 de octubre de 2020. Las unidades espaciales fueron los 48 barrios que componen la CABA y se analizaron dos poblaciones (menores de 60 años y a partir de esta edad o mayores). Se emplearon técnicas de escaneo espacio-temporal para detectar conglomerados de mortalidad alta y baja. Se comparó el porcentaje de hogares con Necesidades Básicas Insatisfechas (NBI), como medida de pobreza estructural, entre los barrios pertenecientes a conglomerados de mortalidad alta y los barrios pertenecientes a conglomerados de mortalidad baja. RESULTADOS: Los conglomerados de mortalidad alta se localizaron mayormente en la mitad sur de la CABA, mientras que los conglomerados de mortalidad baja lo hicieron en el oeste y norte de la ciudad. Los barrios de conglomerados de mortalidad alta mostraron mayores porcentajes de hogares con NBI en comparación a los barrios pertenecientes a conglomerados de mortalidad baja. DISCUSIÓN: Este estudio encontró desigualdades socio-espaciales de la mortalidad por COVID-19 entre barrios de la CABA, reflejando una brecha socioeconómica norte-sur persistente desde hace varias décadas.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2020-11-06info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/144510.1590/SciELOPreprints.1445spahttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/1445/2279Copyright (c) 2020 Carlos Marcelo Leveauhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLeveau, Carlos Marceloreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2020-11-06T05:17:42Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/1445Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2020-11-06T05:17:42SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse |
