Abstract
This paper documents the daily COVID-19 case-growth rates in the low fiscal flexibility countries are significantly higher than those in the high-flexibility countries by 49.1% averagely, given other conditions under the same. Moreover, the impact of fiscal-budget flexibility only functions when the expansion of COVID-19 is not out of hand, e.g., is still in a moderate speed.
