摘要

本文考虑了COVID-19活动的各种公共产品特征及其战略意义。底层聚合技术将个人贡献与消费量联系起来,影响与covid - 19相关活动供应的预测。最薄弱环节活动在遏制COVID-19传播方面发挥着特别关键的作用。例如,COVID-19通过新毒株的传播受到疫苗接种率最低或隔离行动最少的国家的影响尤为严重。风险国家之间收入分配的多样化,提高了“支撑”最薄弱环节国家供应以提振全球供应的必要性。一般来说,支持行动会导致囚徒困境,集体行动前景不利。随着需要支持的国家数量的增加,解决供应短缺的前景变得越来越不利。此外,随着有能力提供支持的国家数量的增加,成功采取行动的前景也在减少。本文还研究了其他聚合器的战略含义。与covid - 19抑制作用相关的最佳疫苗和更好的疫苗。为了采取最佳的抗疫行动,各国必须集中或协调行动,以达到一个阈值。许多机构,例如:例如,世界卫生组织或公私伙伴关系,可以促进支持最薄弱环节的活动或协调最佳行动。

COVID-19 Activities: Publicness and Strategic Concerns
This paper considers the diverse public good characteristics of COVID-19 activities along with their strategic implications. The underlying aggregator technologies, which relate individual contributions to the amount consumed, affect the prognosis for the supply of COVID-related activities. Weakest-link activities assume a particularly pivotal role in curbing the spread of COVID-19. For instance, the propagation of COVID-19 through new strains is disproportionately influenced by those countries with the smallest vaccination rates or least isolation actions. Diverse income distribution among at-risk countries raises the need to “shore up” weakest-link countries’ provision to lift global supply. Generally, shoring-up actions result in a Prisoner’s Dilemma with unfavorable collective action prospects. As the number of countries requiring shoring up increases, the less favorable is the prospect for addressing provision shortfalls. Also, as the number of capable countries to do the shoring up increases, the prospect for successful action diminishes. The paper also examines the strategic implications of other aggregators—e.g., best shot and better shot—associated with COVID-inhibiting actions. To address best-shot anti-COVID actions, countries must pool or coordinate actions to meet a threshold. A host of institutions—e.g., the World Health Organization or public-private partnerships—can facilitate shoring-up weakest-link activities or coordinating best-shot actions.
