由于COVID-19，秘鲁家庭经历了最普遍的经济冲击之一，大大增加了他们对粮食不安全的脆弱性。为了了解秘鲁年轻人口中这些家庭的脆弱性特征，包括政府通过紧急现金转移的反应的作用，我们分析了来自年轻生活研究（n = 2026）的纵向数据，该研究跟踪了目前年龄在18至27岁的两个出生队列的生计。使用食品不安全经验量表评估FI。在秘鲁COVID-19爆发之前和期间收集了家庭特征，以确定参与者对FI的脆弱性。多元逻辑回归分析被用来评估政府支持和参与者的脆弱性特征之间的关联，以FI。在研究期间（2020年3月至12月），24%（95% CI：22.1-25.9%）的参与者经历了FI。财富最高的家庭发生FI的可能性要低49%。较大的家庭（超过5名成员）以及因COVID-19而增加家庭开支和减少收入的家庭更有可能经历FI（分别为35%，39%和42%）。政府支持和FI之间没有显着关联（p = 0.768）。我们的结论是，疫情前的社会经济状况、家庭规模以及COVID-19期间的经济混乱导致秘鲁年轻人口面临FI风险，而政府的支持未能充分降低这些家庭的风险。
Peruvian households have experienced one of the most prevalent economic shocks due to COVID-19, significantly increasing their vulnerability to food insecurity (FI). To understand the vulnerability characteristics of these households among the Peruvian young population, including the role of the government’s response through emergency cash transfer, we analysed longitudinal data from the Young Lives study (n = 2026), a study that follows the livelihoods of two birth cohorts currently aged 18 to 27 years old. FI was assessed using the Food Insecurity Experience Scale. Household characteristics were collected before and during the COVID-19 outbreak in Peru to characterise participants’ vulnerability to FI. Multivariate logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between government support and participants’ vulnerability characteristics to FI. During the period under study (March to December 2020), 24% (95% CI: 22.1–25.9%) of the participants experienced FI. Families in the top wealth tercile were 49% less likely to experience FI. Larger families (>5 members) and those with increased household expenses and decreased income due to COVID-19 were more likely to experience FI (by 35%, 39% and 42%, respectively). There was no significant association between government support and FI (p = 0.768). We conclude that pre-pandemic socioeconomic status, family size, and the economic disruption during COVID-19 contribute to the risk of FI among the Peruvian young population, while government support insufficiently curtailed the risk to these households.
