Abstract

Objective: We investigate the impact of state level COVID-19 related policies on alcohol sales in US.

Method: We use monthly Alcohol Policy Information System (APIS) alcohol sales data during COVID-19 for 13 states from January 2020 to August 2021. Event study and difference-in-differences methods are used to investigate the effects of COVID-19 related policies on alcohol sales.

Results: Bans on mass gatherings led to an increase in alcohol sales per capita (ranging from 6.9% (p=0.063) to 11.1% (p=0.095)). School closures reduced alcohol sales per capita by 6.8% (p=0.149). Allowing bars to sell alcoholic beverage for takeout or curbside pickup increased alcohol sales per capita by 6.7% (p=0.018), while same policy for restaurants reduced alcohol sales per capita by 5.2% (p=0.038).

Conclusions: We document that while not all policies exerted an effect, some did demonstrate a significant impact on alcohol sales during the COVID-19 pandemic in US.

与 COVID-19 相关的美国各州政策在减少酒精销售方面的效果如何?
目标:调查美国各州 COVID-19 相关政策对酒类销售的影响:我们调查了美国各州 COVID-19 相关政策对酒类销售的影响:我们使用了美国 13 个州 2020 年 1 月至 2021 年 8 月 COVID-19 期间的月度酒精政策信息系统(APIS)酒精销售数据。采用事件研究法和差分法研究 COVID-19 相关政策对酒类销售的影响:禁止大规模集会导致人均酒精销售量增加(幅度从 6.9% (p=0.063) 到 11.1% (p=0.095))。学校关闭使人均酒类销售量减少了 6.8%(p=0.149)。允许酒吧出售外卖或路边取酒的政策使人均酒类销售量增加了 6.7% (p=0.018),而针对餐馆的相同政策则使人均酒类销售量减少了 5.2% (p=0.038):根据我们的记录,在美国 COVID-19 大流行期间,虽然并非所有政策都产生了效果,但有些政策确实对酒类销售产生了重大影响。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs began in 1940 as the Quarterly Journal of Studies on Alcohol. It was founded by Howard W. Haggard, M.D., director of Yale University’s Laboratory of Applied Physiology. Dr. Haggard was a physiologist studying the effects of alcohol on the body, and he started the Journal as a way to publish the increasing amount of research on alcohol use, abuse, and treatment that emerged from Yale and other institutions in the years following the repeal of Prohibition in 1933. In addition to original research, the Journal also published abstracts summarizing other published documents dealing with alcohol. At Yale, Dr. Haggard built a large team of alcohol researchers within the Laboratory of Applied Physiology—including E.M. Jellinek, who became managing editor of the Journal in 1941. In 1943, to bring together the various alcohol research projects conducted by the Laboratory, Dr. Haggard formed the Section of Studies on Alcohol, which also became home to the Journal and its editorial staff. In 1950, the Section was renamed the Center of Alcohol Studies.
