ABSTRACT

The health crisis that began in early 2020 has generated a large amount of interest in the effect of COVID-19 on public health. The majority of this work has centered around trying to better understand how the virus spreads, where it spreads, who is at risk and when, in order to provide evidence-based guidance to the public, and stop the pandemic. The Centers for Disease Control has continued to report the largely somber findings; however, there are silver linings. The temporary reduction in daily global CO2 emissions was one of these, but there are others. In this case study on Miami-Dade County, Fl, a regression discontinuity model is used to highlight reductions in both drunk driving crashes and driving under the influence arrests. While we observed immediate reductions in both crashes and arrests as a result of the March 2020 lockdown, more importantly over the duration of the year since the lockdown we observed a staggering reduction of over 800 fewer driving under the influence arrests and almost 150 alcohol-related motor-vehicle crashes.

COVID-19 公共卫生一线希望?迈阿密戴德县因影响逮捕和撞车事故减少驾驶

摘要

始于 2020 年初的健康危机引起了人们对 COVID-19 对公共卫生的影响的极大兴趣。这项工作的大部分集中在试图更好地了解病毒的传播方式、传播地点、面临风险的人以及何时,以便为公众提供循证指导并阻止大流行。疾病控制中心继续报告主要是悲观的调查结果;然而,也有一线希望。每日全球 CO 2的暂时减少排放是其中之一,但还有其他的。在佛罗里达州迈阿密戴德县的案例研究中,使用回归不连续模型来突出酒后驾驶事故和酒后驾驶逮捕的减少。虽然我们观察到由于 2020 年 3 月的封锁,撞车和逮捕立即减少,但更重要的是,自封锁以来的一年中,我们观察到酒后驾驶逮捕人数减少了 800 多起,与酒精相关的近 150 起机动车碰撞事故。
