Relevance
In the modern world, the social factor primarily encompasses various forms
of communication between people, the level of people's concentration in families,
enterprises, educational and health institutions, and the sanitary and hygienic
conditions of work and life. These aspects either promote or hinder the
manifestation of the epidemic process. The social factor determines the potential
and scale of the epidemic process of new coronavirus infection, and analyzing the
influence of social factors is a key element in assessing the sanitary and
epidemiological situation in the region under study.
The purpose of the research
The purpose of our research was to assess some social factors involved in
maintaining the epidemic process of new coronavirus infection in the conditions
of Tashkent.
Research materials
The intra-annual dynamics of the incidence of new coronavirus infection
among the population of Tashkent was studied according to data from the Center
for Sanitary-Epidemiological Welfare and Public Health of the city of Tashkent for
the time period from March 15, 2020, to December 31, 2020. When analyzing the
results, a complex of descriptive and analytical techniques of the epidemiological
research method and medical statistics methods were used.
Research results
As indicated by the analysis assessing the prevalence of COVID-19 among
the population of Tashkent, from March to December 2020, 62,518 people
infected with the coronavirus were registered in the capital. Among the infected,
females predominated, accounting for 33,340 (53.3%), while the total number of
infected males was 29,178 (46.7%) of the total number of patients. Among the
officially registered patients, 61,807 people were infected through contacts in the
family, public places, workplaces, etc., constituting 98.8% of the total number of
patients.
In 0.5% of cases, or 316 infected individuals, arrived in Tashkent on charter
flights. In 272 cases (0.4%), no infection factor was identified; 30 people (0.04%)
were noted to have nosocomial infections.

It should be noted that out of the total number of cases, 140 people (0.2%)
were infected while abroad for tourism, business travel, labor migration, study,
guest visas, etc. Of the 104 identified COVID-19 patients, 43 (30.7%) were infected
in the Republic of Kazakhstan; 20 (19.2%) in the Russian Federation; 12 (8.5%)
in the Republic of Tajikistan; 6 (4.2%) in Turkey; 5 (3.5%) in Italy; 4 (2.8%) in
India; 4 (2.8%) in England; 2 (1.4%) in France; 2 (1.4%) in the UAE; 1 (0.7%) in
Switzerland; 1 (0.7%) in the Czech Republic; 1 (0.7%) in the United States of
America; and 1 (0.7%) in the People's Republic of China. These cases demonstrate
the significance of international travel as a social factor in the spread of the
disease in Tashkent. This model of the social factor is primarily based on
transport, especially aviation, and international connections. This social factor
enables relatively accurate predictions of the epidemic spread of the new
coronavirus infection in the capital.
Conclusion
Thus, obtaining objective and reliable information about the incidence and
the role of social factors in the spread of the new coronavirus infection is
necessary to develop management decisions for the implementation of further
preventive and anti-epidemic measures responsible for epidemiological well-
being.
