The aim of the special survey of the GESIS panel on the outbreak of the corona virus SARS-CoV-2 in Germany was to collect timely data on the effects of the corona crisis on people´s daily lives. The study focused on questions of risk perception, risk minimization measures, evaluation of political measures and their compliance, trust in politics and institutions, changed employment situation, childcare obligations, and media consumption. Due to the need for timely data collection, only the GESIS panel sub-sample of online respondents was invited (about three quarters of the sample). Since, due to time constraints, respondents could only participate in the online survey but not by mail, the results cannot be easily transferred to the overall population. Further longitudinal surveys on Covid-19 with the entire sample of the GESIS panel are planned for 2020.

Topics: Risk perception: Probability of events related to corona infection in the next two months (self, infection of a person from close social surrondings, hospital treatment, quarantine measures regardless of whether infected or not, infecting other people)

Risk minimization: risk minimization measures taken in the last seven days (avoided certain (busy) places, kept minimum distance to other people, adapted school or work situation, quarantine due to symptoms or without symptoms, washed hands more often, used disinfectant, stocks increased, reduced social interactions, worn face mask, other, none of these measures).

Evaluation of the effectiveness of various policy measures to combat the further spread of corona virus (closure of day-care centres, kindergartens and schools, closure of sports facilities, closure of bars, cafés and restaurants, closure of all shops except supermarkets and pharmacies, ban on visiting hospitals, nursing homes and old people´s homes, curfew for persons aged 70 and over or people with health problems or for anyone not working in the health sector or other critical professions (except for basic purchases and urgent medical care).

Curfew compliance or refusal: Willingness to obey a curfew vs. refusal; reasons for the compliance with curfew (social duty, fear of punishment, protection against infection, fear of infecting others (loved ones, infecting others in general, a risk group); reasons for refusal of curfew (restrictions too drastic or not justified, other obligations, does not stop the spread, not affected by the outbreak, boring at home, will not be punished).

Evaluation of the effectiveness of various government measures (medical care, restrictions on social life such as closure of public facilities and businesses, reduction of economic damage, communication with the population).

Trust in politics and institutions with regard to dealing with the coronavirus (physician, local health authority, local and municipal administration, Robert Koch Institute (RKI), Federal Government, German Chancellor, Ministry of Health, World Health Organization (WHO), scientists).

Changed employment situation: employment status at the beginning of March; change in occupational situation since the spread of coronavirus: dependent employees: number of hours reduced, number of hours increased, more home office, leave of absence with/ without continued wage payment , fired, no change; self-employed: working hours reduced, working hours increased, more home office, revenue decreased, revenue increased, company temporarily closed by the authorities, company temporarily voluntarily closed, financial hardship, company permanently closed or insolvent, no change.

Childcare: children under 12 in the household; organisation of childcare during the closure of day-care centres, kindergartens and schools (staying at home, partner stays at home, older siblings take care, grandparents are watching, etc.)

Media consumption on Corona: information sources used for Corona (e.g. nationwide public or private television or radio, local public or private television or radio, national newspapers or local newspapers, Facebook, other social media, personal conversations with friends and family, other, do not inform myself on the subject); frequency of Facebook usage; information about Corona obtained from regional Facebook page or regional Facebook group.

Demography: sex; age (categorized); education (categorized); intention to vote and choice of party (Sunday question); Left-right self-assessment; marital status; size of household.

Abstract

To better understand the impact of the shock induced by the COVID-19 pandemic on micro and small enterprises in Tunisia and assess the policy responses in a rapidly changing context, reliable data is imperative, and the need to resort to a dynamic data collection tool at a time when countries in the region are in a state of flux cannot be overstated. The COVID-19 MENA Monitor Survey was led by the Economic Research Forum (ERF) to provide data for researchers and policy makers on the economic and labor market impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic on enterprises.

The ERF COVID-19 MENA Monitor Survey is constructed using a series of short panel phone surveys, that are conducted approximately every two months, and it will cover business closure (temporary/permanent) due to lockdowns, ability to telework/deliver the service, disruptions to supply chains (for inputs and outputs), loss of product markets, increased cost of supplies, worker layoffs, salary adjustments, access to lines of credit and delays in transportation. Understanding the strategies of enterprises (particularly micro and small enterprises) to cope with the crisis is one of the main objectives of this survey. Specific constraints such as weak access to the internet in some areas or laws constraining goods' delivery will be analyzed. Enterprise owners will also be asked about prospects for the future, including ability to stay open, and whether they benefited from any measures to support their businesses. The ERF COVID-19 MENA Monitor Survey is a wide-ranging, nationally representative panel survey. The wave 2 of this dataset was collected from June to August 2021 and harmonized by the Economic Research Forum (ERF) and is featured as data for enterprise data. The survey is in the process of further expansion to include other waves. The harmonization was designed to create comparable data that can facilitate cross-country and comparative research between other Arab countries (Morocco, Tunisia and Jordan). All the COVID-19 MENA Monitor surveys incorporate similar survey designs, with data on enterprises within Arab countries (Egypt, Jordan, Tunisia and Morocco).

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

The sample universe for the firm survey was firms that had 6-199 workers pre-COVID-19. Stratified random samples were used to ensure adequate sample size in key strata. A target of 500 firms was set as a sample. Up to Five attempts were made to ensure response if a phone number was not picked up/answered, was disconnected or busy, or picked up but could not complete the interview at that time. After the fifth failed attempt, a firm was treated as a non-response and a random firm from the same stratum was used as an alternate.

Use Yellow Pages as follow: o Data on broad categories (e.g. gas stations) o Coded into four strata: (1) services, (2) food & accommodation, (3) trade, manufacturing, and agriculture, (4) construction o Restricted to enterprises with 6-199 workers in February 2020 based on an eligibility question during the phone interview

The enterprise questionnaire is carried out to understand the strategies of enterprises -particularly micro and small enterprises- to cope with the crisis as well as related constraints and prospects for the future. It includes questions on business closure (temporary/permanent) due to lockdowns, ability to telework/deliver the service, disruptions to supply chains (for inputs and outputs), loss of product markets, increased cost of supplies, worker layoffs, salary adjustments, access to lines of credit and delays in transportation.

Note: The questionnaire can be seen in the documentation materials tab.

Context

Different states in United States have different lockdown policy. I found this nice summary of the state action from https://www.ncsl.org that might be useful to those who like to investigate how different lockdown policies can help in flattening the curve. I cleaned up the dataset (like fill the null values, etc) without alternating any information and thus all the 'No' in the state can also be interpreted as NaN.

Content

Specifically, this dataset summarizes if each state (and US territories) perform the following actions (column of the dataset), as of April 10, 2020: 1. Emergency Declaration 2. Major Disaster Declaration 3. National Guard State Activation 4. State Employee Travel Restrictions 5. Statewide Limits on Gatherings and Stay at Home Orders 6. Statewide School Closures
7. Statewide Closure of Non-Essential Businesses
8. Statewide Closure of Some or All Non-Essential Businesses
9. Essential Business Designations Issued
10. Statewide Curfew
11. 1135 Waiver Status
12. Extension of Individual Income Tax Deadlines
13. Primary Election
14. Domestic Travel Limitations 15. Statewide Mask Policy
16. Ventilator Sharing

Acknowledgements

Again, this dataset was found from National Conference of State Legislatures website.

P.S.: Hope that this dataset is useful/helpful in understanding the impact of different lockdown policy.
