Abstract

Measures reduce health risk but limit economic activities and affect disproportionately the contact-intensive sectors whose economic activities involve more person-to-person interactions. The analysis shows that the size of the contact-intensive sectors shapes the stringency of measures due to the economic interactions between the contact-intensive sectors and other sectors although they constitute a minority of the labor force. Exploiting variation in measures and economic conditions across states, an empirical analysis shows that the number of contact-intensive workers has a negative effect on the stringency of measures.

流行病和对缓解措施的支持。
这些措施降低了健康风险,但限制了经济活动,并不成比例地影响了接触密集型部门,这些部门的经济活动涉及更多的人与人之间的互动。分析表明,尽管接触密集型部门只占劳动力的少数,但由于接触密集型部门与其他部门之间的经济互动,接触密集型部门的规模决定了措施的严格程度。利用各州措施和经济条件的差异,一项实证分析表明,接触密集型工人的数量对措施的严格程度有负面影响。
