“Long GFC”? The global financial crisis, health care, and COVID‐19 deaths
研究了2007-2009年全球金融危机对2020-2022年新冠疫情期间健康结果的影响，发现金融危机更严重的欧洲国家、西班牙省份和美国州，其新冠死亡病例相对病例数更多，部分影响通过医疗设施差异传导。
Abstract Do financial crises affect long‐term public health? To answer this question, we examined the relationship between the 2007–2009 Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and the 2020–2022 COVID‐19 pandemic. Specifically, we examined the relationship between the financial losses derived from the GFC, and the health outcomes associated with the first wave of the pandemic. European countries that were more affected by the financial crisis had more deaths relative to coronavirus cases. An analogous relationship emerged across Spanish provinces and US states. Part of the transmission from finances to health outcomes appears to have occurred through cross‐sectional differences in health care facilities.
