Intergenerational coresidence and the Covid-19 pandemic in the United States
研究了美国各县代际同住比例与2020年新冠死亡率的关系,发现两者呈显著正相关,且这一关联在疫情前并不明显。
This paper investigates the relation between intergenerational coresidence and mortality from Covid-19 in 2020. Using a cross-section of U.S. counties, we show that this association is positive, sizeable, significant, and robust to the inclusion of several demographic and socio-economic controls. Furthermore, using evidence from past, pre-pandemic years, we argue that this positive, sizeable and significant association is somewhat specific to the Covid-19 pandemic.
