Data Resources on the COVID-19 Pandemic
last update 2 years ago
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.

EUROSTAT Excess Mortality by Month
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19The monthly excess mortality indicator is based on the exceptional data collection on weekly deaths that Eurostat set up, in April 2020, to support the policy and research efforts related to Covid-19. With that data collection, Eurostat's target was to provide quickly statistics assessing the changing situation of the total number of deaths on a weekly basis, from early 2020 onwards. National Statistical Institutes transmit available data on total weekly deaths, classified by sex, 5-year age groups and NUTS3 regions (NUTS2016) over the last 20 years, on a voluntary basis. The resulting online tables, and complementary metadata, are available in the folder Weekly deaths - special data collection (demomwk). In December 2020, Eurostat released a European Recovery Statistical Dashboard containing also indicators tracking economic and social developments, including health. In this context, “excess mortality” offers elements for monitoring and further analysing direct and indirect effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. The monthly excess mortality indicator draws attention to the magnitude of the crisis by providing a comprehensive comparison of additional deaths amongst the European countries and allowing for further analysis of its causes. The number of deaths from all causes is compared with the expected number of deaths during a certain period in the past. The reasons for an excess mortality may vary according to different phenomena. The indicator is simply comparing the total number of deaths from all causes with the expected number of deaths during a certain period in the past (baseline).

Google Health Trends API
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19Google Health Trends API allows to measure the daily share of Google searches related to COVID-19 in each country, as well as globally. In contrast to the publicly available Google Trends database, Google Health Trends API comes with two advantages. First, the actual numbers are not scaled between 0 and 100 but instead, the values represent the share of Google searches that meet the query conditions as a share of all Google searches at a given date in a specific country. Thus, the variables are both more transparent in terms of construction and are continuous. Second, the scaling from 0 to 100 in publicly available Google Trends always depends on the countries and reference terms that are included. Google Health Trends API enables to achieve cross-country comparability without relying on reference countries. Furthermore, access to Google Health Trends API enables to query up to 30 search terms at a time. But Google Health Trends API does not have built-in translation capabilities.

IMF Fiscal Monitor: Database of Country Fiscal Measures in Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19This database summarizes key fiscal measures governments have announced or taken in selected economies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as of June 12, 2020, expanding the country coverage from the Annex in April 2020 Fiscal Monitor. The database categorizes different types of fiscal support (for example, above-the-line and below-the line measures, and contingent liabilities) that have different implications for public finances in the near term and beyond. Please refer to Box 1.1 of the April 2020 Fiscal Monitor for details. The database is not meant for classifying those measures in fiscal reporting, nor for comparison across economies as responses vary depending on country-specific circumstances, including the impact of the pandemic and other shocks. It focuses on government discretionary measures that supplement existing automatic stabilizers. These existing stabilizers differ across countries in their breadth and scope. Estimates included here are preliminary as governments are taking additional measures or finalizing the details of individual measures.

With regard to demographic statistics relating to deaths, data is produced and disseminated both from marital status sources and from personal data sources, on a monthly and annual basis. Deaths from registry sources refer to the population registered in the Registry, that is to the 'resident population', regardless of where the death occurred (Italy or abroad). Deaths due to marital status refer to the 'present population', therefore to the deaths in Italy of any Italian or foreign citizen, resident or not.

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),

Parents During the Corona Crisis
Open Data and Surveys Related to COVID-19A comprehensive overview on the combined effects of the corona crisis on parents, childcare, the labor market and the perspective of partners, has so far been lacking. The study ties in here and examines the effects of the Corona crisis on parents, taking into account both the family and the world of work. It closes a gap in current research on the Corona crisis.
Link to resource
The study gives an overview of the magnitudes of parent groups affected by the closure of day-nurseries and schools and the changes in the labor market in the months of the lockdown. Four topics that achieved relevance during the crisis are also examined in more detail: parents in systemically relevant professions, working from home as a solution, division of labor between women and men, psychological consequences of the crisis for parents.
The study is based on special evaluations of the latest Microcensus from the German Federal Statistical Office (2018) and on a few special questions injected in German Internet Panel for the Mannheim Corona Study (in German).

This means that the results can be viewed as real-time predictions of the official government statistics, except available up to six weeks ahead of time and updated twice as often. This is one of the key distinctive features compared to other recent studies using online surveys to gauge the state of the US labor market.

The data collection of the second wave of the Trustlab started on the 12th of June 2020, at a time when Corona cases and deaths in the U.S. were quickly growing and was completed on the 7th of September in the same year. The questionnaire of this second wave of the Trustlab captured a set of questions related to the COVID-19 pandemic which constitute our main variables of interest, ranging from self-reported (protective) behavior over worries about the spread in the local community to opinions about the political management of the crisis. The sample contains 1,120 participants and is broadly representative of the U.S. working-age population in terms of age, gender, and income.
