Abstract :
One of the dangers that has spread to all parts of the world since 2019 is the outbreak of the corona virus (Covid-19). Considering the negative effects of this disease (human health, social and economic) in different areas and living conditions of cities, the purpose of this study is to investigate and spatial analysis of Tabriz regions from the perspective of corona pandemic resilience, in order to identify existing deficiencies and provide solutions, in order to increase the resilience of different spaces of the city, especially vulnerable areas. In this regard, the research method is applied in terms of purpose, survey in terms of implementation method and cross-sectional in terms of time. The statistical population of the study also includes the population of the 10 regions of Tabriz (1773033 people) that the sample size has been calculated based on Cochran model 383 people. Also have been used to analyze the data of VIKOR multi-criteria decision model and entropy Shannon weighting model. Findings show that from the perspective of resilience against corona pandemic, region 2 of the city is in a completely favorable condition, regions 3, 6 and 10 are in a favorable condition, regions 1 and 5 are in a state of relative desirability, region 7 is in an unfavorable state and regions 4, 8 and 9 are also in a completely unfavorable situation.
