The regression specification follows columns (3) and (4) of Table 3. Panel A splits the sample according to whether the provincial leaders have been working in the region in charge for 1 year. Panel B splits the sample according to whether the provincial leaders have related experience in dealing with health care disasters. Panel C splits the sample according to whether the provincial leaders have the opportunity to serve a consecutive term. Robust standard errors are clustered by city in parentheses. *, **, and *** respectively denote significance levels of 10%, 5% and 1%
