Support for this hypothesis is found in various strands of the literature and in new empirical tests using cross-country data on deaths due to COVID-19 and deaths during World War 2. Countries with higher death rates in the war saw lower death rates during the COVID-19 pandemic. The tests are robust to a wide range of model specifications and alternative assumptionsPPN: PPN: 1749507218Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-110-WBL | ZDB-1-WBA | ZDB-110-WBODieser Titel hat keine Exemplare
