Abstract | 8 March 2022, 4:30pm EST- COVID19 may have changed the trends in travel patterns forever. After abrupt changes to travel due to lockdowns and closed borders in Australia and New Zealand, travel is slowly returning towards pre-pandemic levels, but there seem to still be some long term effects. This webinar will quantify those trends and what we can expect for trends in the future. |

Abstract | Daily data at the U.S. county level suggest that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases and deaths are lower in counties where a higher share of people have stayed in the same county (or travelled less to other counties). This observation is tested formally by using a difference-in-difference design controlling for county-fixed effects and time-fixed effects, where weekly changes in COVID-19 cases or deaths are regressed on weekly changes in the share of people who have stayed in the same county during the previous 14 days. A counterfactual analysis based on the formal estimation results suggests that staying in the same county has the potential of reducing total weekly COVID-19 cases and deaths in the U.S. as much as by 139,503 and by 23,445, respectively. |
