- Abstract
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 in 2019, it has been a great challenge for the whole world. When the epidemic is serious and the vaccine will play a role, the statistic is an effective tool. It can help the government collect various data and conduct modelling analysis, so that it can face the actual situation and issue appropriate policies. This paper aims to analyse the factors that could affect the death rates among all COVID-19 confirmed cases in Ontario. Specifically, Seasonal ARIMA is used to fit past one-year data to predict short-term trend of confirmed case. An overall upward slope is predicted by selected time series model. Logistic regression is then used to determine how age group and vaccination could affect the mortality risk quantitatively. According to the information as of November 6, 2021, the forecast trend in the short term is expected to show an upward trend. In addition, age group and vaccination status significantly affect the probability of death of confirmed cases. The mortality increased with age. It has also been proved that the mortality of fully vaccinated patients is lower than that of partially vaccinated patients, followed by unvaccinated patients.
