洪水每个季节都使大量人口流离失所，这可能增加脆弱社会的风险。由于未能在第一波疫情中降低感染COVID-19的人数，美国许多州（美国）现在面临着两种灾难同时发生的高风险。在该国进入汛期之前评估这一复合风险至关重要。因此，我们提供了一个快速的工具来评估美国县级的COVID-19复合风险。我们发现，（1）洪水保险房屋索赔的数量可以准确地代表流离失所的人口，具有更多的时空细节，（2）洪水和COVID-19的高风险地区集中在沿着南部和东部海岸以及密西西比河的部分地区。我们的研究结果可能会引发进一步探讨COVID-19与洪水同时发生相关主题的兴趣。
Flooding displaces large populations each season, which potentially increases the exposure of the vulnerable societies. Having failed to curve down the number of people infected with COVID-19 in the first wave of the pandemic, many states in the United States (U.S.) are now at high risk of the concurrence of the two disasters. Assessing this compound risk before the country enters the flood season is of vital importance. Therefore, we provide a prompt tool to assess the compound risk of COVID-19 at the county level over the U.S. We find that (1) the number of flood insurance house claims can proxy the displaced population accurately with more spatiotemporal detail, and (2) the high-risk areas of both flooding and COVID-19 are concentrated along the southern and eastern coasts and some parts of the Mississippi River. Our findings may trigger the interest of further exploring the topics related to the concurrence of COVID-19 and flooding.
