Abstract

Human settlements have faced different challenges due to various cultural, economic, and social factors and the threatening componants of the outbreak of COVID-19. Therefore, different models and systems are needed for management and planning. The study focused on the pathology of rural areas regarding the risk of corona virous in rural areas of Ijroud city. This applied used a descriptive-analytical method. The data was obtained from documentary reports. Data analysis was performed in the form of spatial and geographical statistics in ArcGIS/ GeoDA and SPSS. The results showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between corona and the level of services in these areas. On the other hand, most services are concentrated in more populated areas and less populated areas have much fewer services. It is clear that people of areas with fewer services go to areas that have more services, and given the infectious diseases will distribute more in transportations, this is a major factor in the prevalence of the disease in larger and more populous areas. Six rural areas that were the main focus of the disease were identified and preventive measures should be taken to provide services and restrictions on going to these areas.
