Abstract

Since the early days of the COVID-19 epidemic, the scientific
community has continuously been trying to shed light on various issues such
as the mechanisms driving the spread of the virus, its environmental and
socio-economic impacts, and required recovery and adaptation plans and
policies. Given the high concentration of population and economic activities
in cities, they are frequently spotted by COVID-19 infections.
Changes in infectious disease transmission patterns are a likely major
consequence of climate pollution. The population now lives in urban areas,
we found a consistent negative association between urban green space
exposure and mortality, heart rate, and violence, and positive association
with wellbeing, attention, and physical activity.
The built environment, natural and social environments have a significant
effect on health and wellbeing. The design and construction of new
communities provide an opportunity to explore neighborhood's' design and
planning for human health. Neighborhood design can contribute to a sense
of place and the health of residents by changing the ratios of the car lanes,
pedestrian paths, cycle lanes, green spaces, and public spaces for people.
