Results: the results of the zoning mapping from the Epidemiological aspect showed that 4 sub-districts (66.6%) of the 6 sub-districts were the Covid-19 red zones. From the aspect of Regional Capability in Handling Cases of Covid-19 Infection, it shows that all districts are included in the High Response category in handling Covid-19, and from the aspect of Regional Ability to Trace the History of Close Contact of People Infected with Covid-19 it appears that 3 districts (50%) are included in the category of areas with moderate ability, while the other 3 sub-districts are included in the category of regions with low ability. Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, it is concluded that the level of the spread of Covid-19 in the Badung Regency is very high, even though the level of readiness of the Government in handling Covid-19 cases is very good. The geography of the area bordering other districts/ cities and high population mobility are suspected to be the triggers for the high number of Covid-19 cases.
