Accounting for the variation in the confirmed Covid-19 caseload across England: an analysis of multi-generation households, London and time, NPI

This paper develops a model that goes beyond correlation to measure the size of the impact of various socio-economic variables on the confirmed Covid-19 caseload. Alongside the proportion of over-70s who share a home with people of working-age, these variables include overcrowding and local area deprivation. It also draws out the policy questions raised by the model. Some of them relate to the policy response to the virus over the coming months.
