I am looking to see if there is a correlation between POI mobility vs COVID cases, and if one may be affecting the other. Are there any papers or research that has been done that is similar to what I am doing?

Hello everyone,

I am doing some research for a class/lab involving the Patterns dataset from SafeGraph and COVID-19 cases. What I am looking to do is see if there is a correlation between POI mobility vs COVID cases, and if one may be affecting the other? Is there any papers or research that has been done that is similar to what I am doing? If so, please let me know, I need any help and assistance I can get, thank you.
