- The COVID-19 pandemic and personal spending on protection in Brazil Claudiano Carneiro Cruz Carlos Eduardo Menezes Silva Roberta Teodoro Santos Economía y Finanzas C83 D10 I12 CoV SARS The two main questions addressed in this study are: What are the key drivers to spending on personal protective equipment (PPE) attributable to SARS-COV-2 risks? What are the welfare consequences of SARS-COV-2-induced changes in expenditures of personal individuals? We carried out an online survey conducted on internet and social media networks. We observed that the respondents most likely to spend a higher fraction of income on PPE expenditures are the ones who know someone who died from SARS-COV-2 and the ones who are married. Male respondents are less likely to purchase PPE. Individuals who can afford private health insurance are more likely to spend a higher proportion of income on PPE expenditures than others. Therefore, the higher the income and the number of deaths by SARS-COV-2 locally, the greater the amount spent with such purchases. The presence of children or other persons who need care in the respondent’s household affects positively as well. 2021 artículo científico 0185-1667 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=60171807006 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/601/60171807006/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/601/60171807006/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/601/60171807006/60171807006.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/601/60171807006/movil 10.22201/fe.01851667p.2021.318.77246 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=601 Investigación Económica application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Investigación Económica (México) Num.318 Vol.LXXX
