Testing, one of the methods to combat the COVID-19 outbreak, is highly recommended in all countries. Empirical studies on how testing relates to the control of new cases will help highlight the importance of testing in efforts to combat the epidemic. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the relationship between COVID-19 testing and COVID-19 cases. We use panel autoregressive distributed lag analysis to test the effect of COVID-19 test number on the COVID-19 new cases. The data of the study cover the period from March 19, 2020, to May 01, 2020, for 14 OECD countries. Data were obtained from the https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus website. According to the results, this study shows that increasing the COVID-19 test number will help to reduce new COVID-19 cases. On the other hand, increase in the test number per thousand will probably not contribute to reducing new COVID-19 cases, because countries do not already test by random selection, and even if they do, it will not contribute to detection and isolating of the new cases without identifying risky groups.

COVID-19案例与COVID-19测试之间的关系:经合组织国家的面板数据分析

在所有国家/地区,强烈建议进行测试,这是抵抗COVID-19爆发的一种方法。关于检测与新病例控制之间的关系的实证研究将有助于突出检测在对抗流行病方面的重要性。因此,本研究旨在调查COVID-19检测与COVID-19病例之间的关系。我们使用面板自回归分布滞后分析来测试COVID-19测试编号对COVID-19新案例的影响。该研究的数据涵盖了2020年3月19日至2020年5月1日期间的14个经合组织国家。数据是从https://ourworldindata.org/coronavirus网站获得的。根据结果​​,该研究表明增加COVID-19检验数量将有助于减少新的COVID-19病例。另一方面,
