The COVID-19 pandemic has yielded disproportionate impacts on communities of color in New York City (NYC). Researchers have noted that social disadvantage may result in limited capacity to socially distance, and consequent disparities. We investigate the association between neighborhood social disadvantage and the ability to socially distance, infections, and mortality in Spring 2020. We combine Census Bureau and NYC open data with SARS-CoV-2 testing data using supervised dimensionality-reduction with Bayesian Weighted Quantile Sums regression. The result is a ZIP code-level index with weighted social factors associated with infection risk. We find a positive association between neighborhood social disadvantage and infections, adjusting for the number of tests administered. Neighborhood disadvantage is also associated with a proxy of the capacity to socially isolate, NYC subway usage data. Finally, our index is associated with COVID-19-related mortality.
新冠疫情大流行对纽约市（NYC）的有色人种社区造成了不成比例的影响。研究人员指出，社会劣势可能导致社交距离的能力有限，从而产生差异。我们在 2020 年春季调查了社区社会劣势与社交距离、感染和死亡率之间的关联。我们结合了人口普查局和纽约市的公开数据以及 SARS-CoV-2 检测数据，使用带有贝叶斯加权分位数和和回归的监督降维方法。结果是一个与感染风险相关的加权社会因素的邮政编码级别指数。我们发现，在调整检测数量后，社区社会劣势与感染呈正相关。社区劣势也与纽约市地铁使用数据（社交隔离能力的一个代理）相关。最后，我们的指数与 COVID-19 相关的死亡率相关。
