Students Mathematics Research Seeks Strategies for Statistical Modeling of Pandemic Data Jan. 27, 2021 Share This:
A study by a team of Cal State Fullerton student mathematicians revealed that the rate of spread of COVID-19 is significantly slower in the more prosperous counties across the United States, while the coronavirus spreads much faster in counties with lower average income.
For the first phase of the ongoing research, the students focused on 100 counties across the U.S. the two most populous counties of each state and collected readily accessible data to create their statistical models. The student researchers also focused on seven Southern California counties, including Orange County.
New Analysis Finds Mask Mandates Not Stopping CCP Virus Surge
There may be more effective interventions to control the spread of the CCP virus in the United States and elsewhere than government-ordered mask mandates, the authors of a new study say.
The 25 U.S. counties with the highest number of officially reported cases of CCP virus, which causes the disease COVID-19, have rigorous mask mandates in place, as do 97 of the top 100, according to the study by the Heritage Foundation.
“From October 1 through December 13, the U.S. saw an increase of 8.8 million confirmed COVID-19 cases,” the conservative foundation’s Center for Data Analysis (CDA) reported in a study made public on Dec. 27.

The global reusable face mask market size is expected to reach USD 7.08 billion by 2027. It is expected to expand at a CAGR of 23.5% from 2020 to 2027.
Growing awareness about the ill effects of air pollution, dust, and smoke, and the outbreak of coronavirus are among the primary factors driving the market. According to the American Lung Association, close to 133.9 million people in the U.S. are exposed to unhealthy air conditions every year. Face covering masks act as a shield to protect the wearer from the direct impact of harmful particles present in the air. As the air quality continues to deteriorate, the demand for face masks will keep increasing.
