Abstract

Shortly after Covid 19 virus first appeared, it turned into an epidemic that threatened the health of the world. Many countries have difficulties to control the spread of the virus. It causes many casualties and also affects the countries from a socio-economic aspect. Therefore, it is an important issue that needs to be examined in detail. In this study, the detailed research for the Covid 19 data of G20 (Group of 20), EU (European Union) and OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development) countries is carried out by using different statistical methods. It is aimed to present different perspectives for researchers by discussing important findings and results.
