接触者追踪和检疫计划的经济和健康影响
The economic and health impacts of contact tracing and quarantine programs
摘要：
接触者追踪和隔离计划一直是针对COVID-19的主要非药物干预措施之一。一些政府依赖强制性计划，而另一些政府则采用自愿性方法。然而，关于这些不同方法的相对有效性的证据有限。在一项针对731名代表美国成年人口性别和居住地区的受试者进行的互动在线实验中，我们发现有一个明确的排名。一个完全强制性的计划比一个可选的计划好，一个可选的系统比根本没有干预好。该排名是由感染减少而经济活动保持不变推动的。我们还发现，政治保守派有更高的感染率和经济活动水平，他们不太可能参与接触者追踪计划。
英文摘要：
Contact tracing and quarantine programs have been one of the leading Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions against COVID-19. Some governments have relied on mandatory programs, whereas others embrace a voluntary approach. However, there is limited evidence on the relative effectiveness of these different approaches. In an interactive online experiment conducted on 731 subjects representative of the adult US population in terms of sex and region of residence, we find there is a clear ranking. A fully mandatory program is better than an optional one, and an optional system is better than no intervention at all. The ranking is driven by reductions in infections, while economic activity stays unchanged. We also find that political conservatives have higher infections and levels of economic activity, and they are less likely to participate in the contact tracing program.
