ABSTRACT Using eight cross-section econometric models applied to a sample of 31 countries, we find that, although the Case Fatality Ratio (CFR) of COVID-19 is explained by ‘structural’ variables that were given prior to the pandemic (healthcare infrastructure, comorbidities, poverty and the HDI), the ’response’ variables to the crisis (fiscal support, health policy, and, above all, government narrative) have been determinant in the evolution of the pandemic. We show that the dummy variable representing populist countries is significant, demonstrating that, as Shiller (2017) stated, narrative plays a major role in shaping behavior and economic outcomes.
期刊介绍：
International Review of Applied Economics is devoted to the practical applications of economic ideas. Applied economics is widely interpreted to embrace empirical work and the application of economics to the evaluation and development of economic policies. The interaction between empirical work and economic policy is an important feature of the journal. The Journal is peer reviewed and international in scope. Articles that draw lessons from the experience of one country for the benefit of others, or that seek to make cross-country comparisons are particularly welcomed. Contributions which discuss policy issues from theoretical positions neglected in other journals are also encouraged.
