spatial statistics, spatial patterns, spatial association, Covid-19Abstract
In December 2019, Covid 19 disease emerged from the Wuhan province, and then spread throughout the world, Peru has not been the exception. The main objective of this work is to estimate the spatial patterns of Covid 19 in Peru, in addition to establishing clusters at the regional level. Spatial association was found using spatial statistical techniques using the global I Moran of 0.056 (p <0.05). On the other hand, four clusters were established: first, regions in the north of the country where there are more cases, the south where there are fewer numbers and clusters made up of outliers such as Lima and Callao.
