Socioeconomic status determines COVID-19 incidence and related mortality in Santiago, Chile

( A) Municipalities that are part of the Greater Santiago are colored according to their socioeconomic status (SES), where a lower score is indicative of a lower SES. ( B) COVID-19 cases normalized by population size per municipality. Municipalities are sorted by SES starting with the one that has the highest SES at the top. ( C) COVID-19 attributed deaths normalized by population size per municipality. ( D) Age-adjusted adjusted COVID-19 attributed death rates and its association with SES. The dots and the whiskers represent the median and the 95% confidence intervals respectively, reflecting uncertainty on the standard population used for weighting. ( E) Daily reduction in mobility by municipality colored by its SES value. (
