All regressions are weighted by propensity scores. ***, **, and * denote significance at 1%, 5%, and 10%, respectively. Standard errors are clustered at census area level. The dependent variables of column 1 and 2 are the natural log of Covid-19 cases in the population above and below 19 years old, respectively. The dependent variable of column 3 and 4 is the natural log of Covid-19 cases in all the population.
