The economic impact of an influenza pandemic by

1 edition published in 2007 in English and held by 2 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"In this paper we examine the potential impact of an influenza pandemic on the economy. We use historical data to understand how past pandemics affected human health, and the economy while also accounting for subsequent relevant economic changes. We find that previous pandemics and SARS had limited and that a 1918-type pandemic would likely reduce annual GDP growth by up to 1percentage point in the pandemic year. Economic and social changes since 1918 likely imply significantly greater impacts today than in 1918. The demand impacts of a pandemic would be unevenly distributed across sectors. units in which employees engage in a high degree of social interaction could peak absenteeism than larger work units with less social interaction. The of market economies as well as reallocations of spending across sectors time would tend to mitigate the aggregate economic effects of a pandemic. If were to occur, human suffering and loss of life would outweigh economic concerns."--Page 1
