COVID-19 health restrictions not only affected crime rates but also created a new and temporary type of crime, COVID-19 public health violations. Unfortunately, this new crime type has not yet been empirically scrutinized. The current study is the first to explore these COVID-19 public health violations by using a dataset created by the City of San Antonio which documents all calls and inspections about COVID-19 public health violations. Specifically, this study investigates the location types (where) that produce the greatest number of calls/inspections, warnings, and citations for COVID-19 public health violations; how they trended over time (when); and which agencies responded to and enforced them (who). The results indicate that there were differences across location type, variation throughout the observation period, and violations were enforced by several agencies. It is crucial to document the effect of COVID-19-related policies so that we may be better prepared for the future.

COVID-19 健康限制不仅影响了犯罪率，而且还创造了一种新的临时犯罪类型，即 COVID-19 公共卫生违规行为。不幸的是，这种新的犯罪类型尚未经过实证研究。目前的研究是第一个通过使用由圣安东尼奥市创建的数据集来探索这些 COVID-19 公共卫生违规行为的研究，该数据集记录了有关 COVID-19 公共卫生违规行为的所有电话和检查。具体而言，本研究调查了因 COVID-19 公共卫生违规而产生最多呼叫/检查、警告和引用的位置类型（何处）；随着时间的推移，它们的趋势如何（何时）；以及哪些机构回应并执行了它们（谁）。结果表明，不同地点类型存在差异，在整个观察期内变化，一些机构实施了违规行为。记录 COVID-19 相关政策的影响至关重要，这样我们才能为未来做好更好的准备。
