Virtual Webinar: The US COVID-19 County Policy Database: a novel resource to support pandemic-related research
Dr. Rita Hamad
It is increasingly recognized that policies have played a role in both alleviating and exacerbating the health and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. While prior work has focused on characterizing and analyzing the effects of federal and state policies, there has been limited systematic evaluation of variation in U.S. local (i.e., county) COVID-19-related policies. This virtual webinar introduces the U.S. COVID-19 County Policy (UCCP) Database, whose objective is to systematically gather, characterize, and assess variation in U.S. county-level COVID-19-related policies. Data collection is still ongoing for this NIH and PCORI-funded database. Dr. Hamad will describe the data collection methods and some preliminary results.
