Abstract: Covid-19 presents many social and economic challenges and exacerbates existing ones. One of these challenges is global poverty. Global poverty can spread to urban areas now with COVID-19 outbreak. Poverty increased in the United States in 2020 as the coronavirus outbreak, affecting the economy and rising unemployment. In this study, we examine the relationship between Covid outbreak, governance and economic performance and its impact on number in poverty. To this end, data from the Center for American Progress is analyzed over 10 years (from 2011-2020) among the 49 states in America through spatial econometric techniques for panel data.
