The impact of public health policies on online food delivery services in China
This paper explores the impact of global COVID-19 lockdown policies on online food delivery services. Sales data from 195 Chinese cities, the impact of lockdown policies on food delivery was evaluated using a time-varying difference-in-differences approach, focusing on the effects at the start and end of the lockdown. The results indicate that lockdown policies significantly reduced the demand for online food delivery services, with sales decreasing by approximately 20.8 %. After the lockdowns were lifted, demand began to recover, but it did not return to pre-lockdown levels. The study found significant variations in the impact of lockdown policies across cities, likely due to cultural factors, pandemic severity, economic conditions and city hierarchy. This study provides an in-depth analysis of the interaction between public health policies and the online food delivery service industry, offering empirical insights for policy-making and corporate strategies during health crises.
期刊介绍:
Studies directed toward the more effective utilization of existing resources, e.g. mathematical programming models of health care delivery systems with relevance to more effective program design; systems analysis of fire outbreaks and its relevance to the location of fire stations; statistical analysis of the efficiency of a developing country economy or industry.
Studies relating to the interaction of various segments of society and technology, e.g. the effects of government health policies on the utilization and design of hospital facilities; the relationship between housing density and the demands on public transportation or other service facilities: patterns and implications of urban development and air or water pollution.
Studies devoted to the anticipations of and response to future needs for social, health and other human services, e.g. the relationship between industrial growth and the development of educational resources in affected areas; investigation of future demands for material and child health resources in a developing country; design of effective recycling in an urban setting.
