Index COVID-19 prevalence COVID-19 mortality rate COVID-19 case fatality rate
Individualism, Hofstede ρ = 0.287 ρ = 0.414* ρ = 0.324
pcorrected = 0.180 pcorrected = 0.008 pcorrected = 0.072
Individualism, Suh ρ = 0.334 ρ = 0.563* ρ = 0.479*
pcorrected = 0.135 pcorrected = 0.008 pcorrected = 0.009
Collectivism, Gelfand ρ = -0.296 ρ = -0.405* ρ = -0.303
pcorrected = 0.252 pcorrected = 0.018 pcorrected = 0.234

Abbreviations: ρ, Spearman's correlation coefficient; pcorrected, significance level after Bonferroni's correction for a 3 × 3 table.
