“…However, in addition to the severe economic recession and social crisis, public health security measures have also seriously affected the global response to climate change [ 4 ] because the impacts of COVID-19 and climate change easily add up to compound risks [ 5 ]. Ebi et al [ 6 ] pointed out that, like the climate crisis, the similarities in the magnitude of the impact, scale, and scope of the response to COVID-19 may pose more severe compounding risks to global socio-economic development, which also provides humanity with a warning about the importance of risk prevention and governance resilience.…”

This paper investigates the effectiveness of government measures implemented against COVID-19 and the factors influencing a country’s economic growth from a global perspective. With the help of the data of the Government Response Stringency Index (GRSI), Google mobility, and confirmed COVID-19 daily cases, we conducted a panel model for 105 countries and regions from 11 March 2020 to 31 June 2021 to explore the effects of response policies in different countries against the pandemic. First, the results showed that staying in residential places had the strongest correlation with confirmed cases. Second, in countries with higher government stringency, stay-at-home policies carried out in the early spread of the pandemic had the most effective the impact. In addition, the results have also been strictly robustly analyzed by applying the propensity score matching (PSM) method. Third, after reconstructing a panel data of 47 OECD countries, we further concluded that governments should take stricter restrictive measures in response to COVID-19. Even though it may also cause a shock to the market in the short term, this may not be sustainable. As long as the policy response is justified, it will moderate the negative effect on the economy over time, and finally have a positive effect.

“…Moreover, when based on these single indicators or on city-level or less granular data, policies and interventions may contribute to growing inequalities by disregarding local population needs and access barriers to support services. Overall, indicators prominent in one neighborhood may not reflect population needs in other neighborhoods, raising the need to create a granular system of small-scale estimators in which indicators can be mutually studied to reflect the local context in health policy and planning [7,15,16].…”

Despite increased awareness of the essential role of neighborhood characteristics for residents’ health and wellbeing, the development of neighborhood-level indicator systems has received relatively little attention to date. To address this gap, we describe the participatory development process of a small-area indicator system that includes information on local health needs in a pilot neighborhood in the German city of Mannheim. To identify relevant indicators, we partnered with representatives of the city’s public health department and used an iterative approach that included multiple Plan-Do-Check-Act cycles with ongoing feedback from local key stakeholders. The described process resulted in a web-based indicator system with a total of 86 indicators. Additionally, 123 indicators were perceived as relevant by stakeholders but could not be included due to data unavailability. Overall, stakeholders evaluated the participatory approach as useful. Even though the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the lack of some data elements hindered instrument development, close collaboration with public health partners facilitated the process. To identify and target sub-national health inequalities, we encourage local public health stakeholders to develop meaningful and useful neighborhood-level indicator systems, building on our experiences from the applied development process and considering identified barriers and facilitators.
