The pandemic severity index consists of three indicators: the incidence of patients tested positive for COVID-19, the incidence of patients with COVID-19 in intensive care, and the incidence of registered deaths due to COVID-19. The datasets have been developed within the CODIFF project (Socio-Spatial Diffusion of COVID-19 in Germany) at Leibniz Insitute for Research on Society and Space. The project received funding by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, project number 492338717). The datasets have been used in the following publications, in which further methodological details on the indicator can be found:

Young Germany during COVID-19 is a youth study, which focuses on young people aged 16 to 26 years living in Germany. The study has been conducted in September 2020 and is part of a larger series called Young Europe – The Youth Study of TUI Foundation which aims to shed light on the lifeworld, identity, and attitudes of young Europeans. In the September 2020 wave, 1.011 young adults (age 16-26) participated via an online survey provided by the opinion research institute YouGov. Further, an additional sample of 2.025 older adults has answered specific questions to create comparability. The survey’s main focus is the situation of young adults in Germany during the Coronavirus pandemic, especially their compliance with the restrictions and measurements taken by the government and the youth’s individual motivations to comply. The survey asks which measurements are particularly difficult and where do young people see the potential for societal conflict. These specific questions regarding the pandemic have then been supplemented by questions regarding the political representation of the youth, opinions on European integration and EU issues, as well as on the EU’s joint debt borrowing (Next Generation EU).
