Seluruh wilayah di Sumatera Barat telah terkonfirmasi kasus positif COVID-19 dengan kateogri risiko rendah, sedang, dan risiko tinggi. Kepadatan penduduk dinilai sebagai salah satu faktor penyebab penyebaran kasus COVID-19.

Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan pendekatan Sistem Informasi Geografis (SIG). Data yang digunakan yaitu data sekunder yang didapatkan dari Dinas Kesehatan Provinsi Sumatera Barat dan Badan Pusat Statistik Sumatera Barat. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian diketahui bahwa kabupaten/kota dengan kasus COVID-19 terbanyak di Sumatera Barat yaitu Kota Padang (50%). Sedangkan kabupaten/kota dengan kepadatan penduduk paling tinggi yaitu Kota Bukittinggi (4759.09 jiwa/km2 ). Berdasarkan analisis statistic diketahui bahwa tidak ada hubungan yang bermakna antara kepadatan penduduk dengan sebaran kasus COVID-19 di Sumatera Barat (p-value: 0.720). Pembatasan kegiatan masyarakat serta penerapan protokol kesehatan harus selalu diperhatikan guna mencegah terjadinya penyebaran kasus COVID-19 di Sumatera Barat.
