The rapidity and extent of Covid-19 infections have shown how a phenomenon that initially seemed geographically circumscribed quickly spread worldwide. In 2020, the spread of infection and the containment and management measures taken by local governments have been quite heterogeneous. Therefore, here we investigate the different ways of the spread of the infection in different areas, and specifically in Canada, Mexico, and the European Union states. For this purpose, for each area, official data on infection in 2020 are used to depict, analyze, and compare the monthly contagion’s curves and the Rt index, both in absolute and relative terms.

Abstract

The rapidity and extent of Covid-19 infections have shown how a phenomenon that initially seemed geographically circumscribed quickly spread worldwide. In 2020, the spread of infection and the containment and management measures taken by local governments have been quite heterogeneous. Therefore, here we investigate the different ways of the spread of the infection in different areas, and specifically in Canada, Mexico, and the European Union states. For this purpose, for each area, official data on infection in 2020 are used to depict, analyze, and compare the monthly contagion’s curves and the Rt index, both in absolute and relative terms.
