我探讨了2020年上半年封锁政策的严重程度与死亡率之间的关系。使用布拉瓦特尼克中心COVID-19政策措施的两个指数，并比较2017-2020年上半年24个欧洲国家的每周死亡率，以两种不同的方式解决政策内生性，并考虑到时间因素，我发现封锁政策与死亡率发展之间没有明显的联系。
I explore the association between the severity of lockdown policies in the first half of 2020 and mortality rates. Using two indices from the Blavatnik Centre's COVID-19 policy measures and comparing weekly mortality rates from 24 European countries in the first halves of 2017-2020, addressing policy endogeneity in two different ways, and taking timing into account, I find no clear association between lockdown policies and mortality development.
