Why is this resource interesting?The Johns Hopkins COVID-19 data "links data from the Robert Koch Institute, the World Health Organization, and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. Furthermore, official statistics from the Robert Koch Institute are downward biased on weekends, as some local administrations only report their case numbers on workdays. The data then enter the official statistics on Monday and Tuesday, yielding an upward bias of the statistics on new infections. We find that the data from the Johns Hopkins University (2020) are more robust to these biases." (Hartl, et al. 2020),

Google's COVID-19 Community Mobility Reports
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19Google COVID-19 community mobility reports aim to provide insights into what has changed in response to policies aimed at combating COVID-19.
Link to resource
Why is this resource interesting?"The Google COVID-19 mobility reports aggregate anonymized sets of data from users’ mobile device location history. The mobility index measures how visits to, or length of stay at, different types of location change over time compared to a baseline period corresponding to January 3 - February 6, 2020. There are six location categories: (i) retail and recreation, (ii) grocery and pharmacy, (iii) parks (public gardens, dog parks, beaches, etc.), (iv) transit stations (public transport hubs such as subway, bus, train stations), (v) workplaces and (vi) residential areas.
Human mobility is tracked by Google daily and in a consistent manner across 131 countries. For a subset of countries, the information is provided at sub-national level." (IZA DP 13205)

WageIndicator Survey of Living and Working in Coronavirus Times
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19The WageIndicator Foundation has launched a continuous global online survey ‘Living and Working in Corona Times’. The purpose of the survey is to discover what makes the Coronavirus lockdown easier (or tougher) for citizens across 110 countries, and to gauge the effect of COVID-19 on jobs, lives and states of mind.
Link to resource
Why is this resource interesting?WageIndicator shows coronavirus-induced changes in living and working conditions in 110 countries. The survey reveals, from day to day, the consequences the large majority of the working population of the world experiences on the basis of answers on the following questions in the Corona survey:
- Is your work affected by the corona crisis?
- Are precautionary measures taken at the workplace?
- Do you have to work from home?
- Has your workload increased/decreased?
- Have you lost your job/work/assignments?

Oxford COVID-19 Government Response Tracker (OxCGRT)
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19The University of Oxford’s Blavatnik School of Government systematically collects information on policy stringency taken by governments to tackle the pandemic since February 2020. OxCGRT collects information on government policy responses across eight dimensions, namely: (i) school closures; (ii) workplace closures; (iii) public event cancellations; (iv) gathering restrictions; (v) public transportation closures; (vi) stay-at-home orders; (vii) restrictions on internal movement; and (viii) international travel bans. These dimensions are then used to calculate response indexes to COVID-19. Each index is rescaled to get a score between 0 and 100 (100 representing the highest degree of strictness/restriction).

Why is this resource interesting?"This tracker implemented by the University of Oxford’s Blavatnik School of Government systematically collects information on the measures taken by governments to tackle the pandemic since February 2020 . OxCGRT is based on publicly avail-able information on 13 indicators of government response (policies such as school closures, ban son public gatherings or travel, etc., and financial indicators such as fiscal or monetary measures). Each indicator is re-scaled to get a score between 0 and 100 (100 representing the highest degree of strictness/restriction)." (IZA DP 13205)

A number of national and international research projects are currently underway that empirically
record the economic and social effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The collection is wide and ranges
from snapshots of surveys with self-selected samples, representative surveys, longitudinal studies,
experiments, etc..
IZA’s Research Data Center (IDSC) collects and curates the information on such new initiatives.
Projects with high research output based on number of IZA Discussion Papers or otherwise are
promoted especially as “featured resources” on the top of our website.

Cambridge Core Blog: Country Responses to the Covid-19 Pandemic
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19Members of the European Health Policy Group and the Anglo-American Health Policy Network, were invited to write 1,200 words on the response of their region or country thus far to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Link to resource
The authors were asked to write their reports on their country/region’s response to the pandemic up to the beginning of April, offering an indication of the justification given for the response (e.g. was it expert-informed, was the response immediate or delayed, was it informed by the experiences of other countries etc.?). In the final third of their reports, the authors were asked to offer a reflection on the response thus far. They were asked to consider what they think has been done well, and what could have been done better.
At the beginning of each month, until the crisis has passed, the authors will be given the opportunity to offer short updates, of 600-800 words, on their country/region’s continuing response to this pandemic and their further reflections on those responses.

CHS COVID-19 Control Strategies List (CCCSL)
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19Worldwide, governments have implemented country-specific control strategies to . However, were those measures effective? Researchers at the Complexity Science Hub (CSH) Vienna are building a comprehensive database of non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) taken by the governments worldwide in order to prevent the introduction and mitigate the spread of the virus, and to assess the impact of these actions on the spread of the COVID-19 in the respective countries. Students, researchers, and volunteers are collecting data from public sources on the implemented NPIs, including the time schedules for the implementation.
Link to resource
The dataset describes the implemented NPIs for 54 countries, including the Diamond Princess cruise ship. Measures implemented at the subnational level (state, region, city) are also included.

Gross National Happiness Index
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19The happiness index is constructed by monitoring and extracting the Tweets of South Africans (New Zealanders, Australians) and analysing the sentiment of these Tweets. A sentiment score is allocated to each Tweet, classifying the Tweet as either negative, neutral or positive. The sentiment scores are then used in a sentiment balance algorithm, to derive the Gross National Happiness (GNH). The GNH is measured on a scale of 0 to 10, with 0 being very unhappy and 10 being very happy.
