Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the direction of the pandemic spread on monthly COVID-19 case density maps in 4 districts of Diyarbakir city in the application software of the Republic of Turkey Ministry of Health "Hayat Eve Sigar (Life Fits Into Home)", in terms of socio-economic development indices based on Edwin Chadwick's relationship between health and poverty concepts. Material and Methods: COVID-19 cases density maps in the same central districts over the last 5 months, and the amount of propagation and density of the pandemic in those districts were determined. Results: When comparing areas of Diyarbakir with low and high socio-economic status, a parallelism was found between the density of the pandemic and the direction of spread. Discussion: The vicious circle of poverty constantly creates negative health consequences in the presence of an unhealthy environment and low socioeconomic status.
