Table 2.

Estimated relationships (log-log model) of COVID-19 detected cases as a function of the density of population in Japanese cities from July to September 2021

Dependent variables
COVID-19 detected cases till July 5, 2021 COVID-19 detected cases till August 9, 2021 COVID-19 detected cases from July 6 to August 9, 2021 COVID-19 detected cases till September 5, 2021 COVID-19 detected cases from August 9 to September 5, 2021
Coefficient b 1.241*** 1.242*** 1.262*** 1.232*** 1.217***
Constant a 1.493* 1.700** -0.147 2.212*** 1.273**
F-test 151.35*** 171.98*** 140.73*** 176.07*** 159.045***
R2 0.896 0.823 0.792 0.826 0.811

Note. Explanatory variable is density of population per km2. F is the ratio of the variance explained by the model to the unexplained variance; R2 is the coefficient of determination adj.
