Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper shows that countries where informality is commonplace, where a small share of jobs can be performed remotely, and where government effectiveness is low, experience smaller declines in COVID-19 cases after making containment measures more stringent. This appears to be related to the fact that in these countries mobility declines less after the implementation of containment policies, which facilitates the spread of the disease.
