From Health Affairs
Dear John,
Health Affairs just announced three new events
for the month of March.
Subscribe to our events newsletter
to stay up-to-date about
our monthly programming.
Effects Of Mask Mandates
In an article in the March issue, Jing Huang and coauthors match and
compare cohorts from 394 counties in the United States to estimate the
association between county-level public masking mandates
and the daily COVID-19 case incidence.
They determine mask mandates are associated with reduced case incidence
six weeks following the onset of the mandate.
"On average, the daily case incidence per 100,000 people in masked
counties compared with unmasked counties declined by 23 percent at four
weeks, 33 percent at six weeks, and 16 percent across six weeks post
intervention," they report.
Felicia Marie Knaul and coauthors investigate the policy response to
COVID-19 in Latin America
.
They find wide variation in nonpharmaceutical interventions to contain
COVID-19, both across and within countries.
Their results point to the role of subnational policies and governments
in responding to health crises.
Elsewhere At Health Affairs
Today in Health Affairs Forefront, Elizabeth Pollock and coauthors
discuss the robust body of literature tying the health of our democracy
to the health of people and populations
.
