摘要

麻疹疫苗于1963年问世。疫苗在美国迅速普及，导致发病率和死亡率下降。关于麻疹病毒如何与我们的免疫系统相互作用的新的生物学证据表明，麻疹疫苗的影响可能被低估。使用差异中的差异识别策略，我找到了麻疹疫苗增加收入和就业的证据。对成年人的长期随访发现，他们的收入增加了1%。对就业有积极影响。收入的增加不是来自工作时间的增加，而是来自生产力的提高。(j12, j18, j22, j24, j31)

The Long-Term Effects of Measles Vaccination on Earnings and Employment

The measles vaccine was introduced in 1963. Take-up of the vaccine in the United States occurred quickly and universally, leading to reductions in morbidity and mortality. New biological evidence on how the measles virus interacts with our immune system indicates the impact of the measles vaccine may be underestimated. Using a difference-in-difference identification strategy, I find evidence the measles vaccine increased earnings and employment. Long-term follow-up of adults finds an increase in income of 1. 1 percent and positive effects on employment. This increase in income is not from an increase in hours worked but rather from greater productivity. (JEL I12, I18, J22, J24, J31)
