CSDE Fellow Aasli Nur and co-authors publish a paper in the Journal of Global Health. The paper entitled “Drivers of COVID-19 policy stringency in 175 countries and territories: COVID-19 cases and deaths, gross domestic products per capita, and health expenditures.” The authors utilize a dataset of 175 countries and territories to model the marginal effects of new COVID-19 cases on policy stringency controlling for adjusted gross domestic product (GDP), per capita and health expenditure (% of GDP), and public expenditure on health. The results show that policy response to new cases and deaths was faster and more stringent early in the COVI-19 pandemic (March-August 2020) in comparison to subsequent periods.
