论文摘要
随着19日大流行的展开,全球人的流动方式发生了巨大变化。尽管旅行时间,成本和旅行便利始终影响流动性,但感染的风险和政策行动(例如锁定和居住订单)在位置访问计算中出现了新因素。我们使用来自美国明尼苏达州的Safegraph移动性数据,以证明位于富裕的邮政编码中的企业(尤其是那些需要延长室内访问的企业),在锁定期之外的访问(相对于流行前时代)的较尖锐的邮政编码比其较差的企业见证了访问的较清晰(相对于大流行时期)。在访问转化为销售的范围内,我们认为大流行后的恢复工作应优先考虑救济资金,并将损失与访问减少有关的损失。
As the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded, the mobility patterns of people worldwide changed drastically. While travel time, costs, and trip convenience have always influenced mobility, the risk of infection and policy actions such as lockdowns and stay-at-home orders emerged as new factors to consider in the location-visitation calculus. We use SafeGraph mobility data from Minnesota, USA, to demonstrate that businesses (especially those requiring extended indoor visits) located in affluent zip codes witnessed sharper reductions in visits (relative to pre-pandemic times) outside of the lockdown periods than their poorer counterparts. To the extent visits translate into sales, we contend that post-pandemic recovery efforts should prioritize relief funding, keeping the losses relating to diminished visits in mind.
