The global spread of the COVID-19 has brought about global changes, especially in terms of economic growth. Therefore, it has become a global issue to explore the impact of public health security on the economy.
Employing a dynamic spatial Durbin model, this study analyzes the spatial linkage mechanism of medical level, public health security, and economic climate in 19 countries as well as investigates the relationship between economic climate and COVID-19 by the panel data of 19 OECD European Union countries from March 2020 to September 2022.
Results show that an improvement in the medical level can reduce the negative impact of public health security on the economy. Specifically, there is a significant spatial spillover effect. The degree of economic prosperity hurts the reproduction rate of COVID-19.
Policymakers should consider both the severity of the public health security issues and the economic level when developing prevention and control policies. Given this, corresponding suggestions provide theoretical support for formulating policies to reduce the economic impact of public health security issues.
COVID-19 在全球范围内的传播带来了全球变化,特别是在经济增长方面。因此,探索公共卫生安全对经济的影响已成为一个全球性问题。
本研究采用动态空间 Durbin 模型,分析了 19 个国家的医疗水平、公共卫生安全和经济气候之间的空间联动机制,并利用 19 个经合组织欧洲联盟国家 2020 年 3 月至 2022 年 9 月的面板数据调查了经济气候与 COVID-19 之间的关系。
结果表明,医疗水平的提高可以减轻公共卫生安全对经济的负面影响。具体来说,存在显著的空间溢出效应。经济繁荣程度会损害 COVID-19 的繁殖率。
政策制定者在制定预防和控制政策时应同时考虑公共卫生安全问题的严重程度和经济水平。有鉴于此,相应的建议为制定减轻公共卫生安全问题对经济影响的政策提供了理论支持。
