The paper presents an original method for solving the problem of finding a connection between the course of the epidemic and socio-economic, demographic and climatic factors. The method was applied to solve this problem for 110 countries of the world using a set of corresponding curves of the COVID-19 growth rate for the period from January 2020 to August 2021. Hierarchical agglomerative clustering was applied. Four large clusters with uniform curves were identified – 11, 39, 17 and 13 countries, respectively. Another 30 countries were not included in any cluster. Using machine learning methods, we identified the differences in socio-economic, demographic and geographical and climatic indicators in the selected clusters of countries of the world. The most important indicators by which the clusters differ from each other are amplitude of temperatures throughout the year, high-tech exports, Gini coefficient, size of the urban population and the general population, index of net barter terms of trade, population growth, average January temperature, territory (land area), number of deaths due to natural disasters, birth rate, coastline length, oil reserves, population in urban agglomerations with a population of more than 1 million etc. This approach (the use of clustering in combination with classification by methods of logical-statistical analysis) has not been used by anyone before. The found patterns will make it possible to more accurately predict the epidemiological process in countries belonging to different clusters. Supplementing this approach with autoregressive models will automate the forecast and improve its accuracy.
