Notes: This table shows shows differences-in-differences estimates. The models include controls for a dummy that takes value 1 in the days after the stay-at-home order was announced, as well as State, year, week, day fixed effects and the one-day lagged number of new deaths from Covid-19 per million. Weights are applied. Robust standard errors are in parentheses. Standard errors are clustered at the day level.
