Highlights |
• | The European commission has developed an index for risk management named INFORM |
• | Two dimensions (vulnerability and lack of coping capacity) are relevant to COVID-19 |
• | We examined if these dimensions were associated with COVID-19 pandemic control |
• | Higher vulnerability and poorer coping capacity were associated with poorer control |
• | Modifying these two dimensions might potentially mitigate COVID-19 pandemic control |
Keywords : Vulnerability, coping capacity, COVID-19, pandemic control
