Impact of mobility restrictions on the dynamics of transmission of COVID-19 in Colombian cities
(Oxford University Press, 2022)
Our aim was to study the association between case rates and reductions in urban mobility in state capitals of Colombia. We designed an ecological time-series study to correlate the Colombian incidence rate with reductions ...
Using serological studies to assess COVID-19 infection fatality rate in developing countries: A case study from one Colombian department
(2021)
This study describe the infection fatality rate (IFR) by COVID-19 by age groups in one department of Colombia. It used results from a serological survey to stablish a closer estimation of the true proportion of infected ...
Quantifying the years of life lost due to COVID-19 in Colombia: preliminary estimates
(Corporación Universidad de la Costa, 2021)
To estimate the years of life lost (YLLs) due to COVID-19 in Colombia and assess its economic impact by valuing the potential years of productive life lost (PYLLs). We conducted an ecological study to estimate the number ...
Molecular testing dynamics is reactive to COVID-19 incidence: Observations from the colombian experience
(2021-06)
There was a positive correlation between molecular tests conducted and COVID-19 incidence and death rate (r = 0.79, p < 0.01 and r = 0.64, p < 0.01, respectively). The cointegration (ADF) test revealed a statistically ...
