Data for Two Pandemics Covid and AMR.dta
Description
This data is a STATA data set (.dta). Based on 117 responses to a web survey in 29 European countries and interviews with bureaucrats in managerial positions, this paper investigates how people working professionally with antimicrobial resistance (AMR) assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their future long-run cooperation in the struggle against AMR, both within their own country and among the European countries. We measure whether the severity level of the AMR problem, cumulative COVID-19 death rates, and the daily number of confirmed new COVID-19 cases in their own countries have affected bureaucrats´ beliefs about long-run AMR collaboration. We find that around 40 percent of the bureaucrats believe that the cooperation will increase domestically and at the European level. However, there are considerable differences across regions: Eastern European bureaucrats are clearly the most pessimistic about future cooperation, while the Southern European and Nordic bureaucrats are the most optimistic. Neither the severity of the AMR problem nor the number of confirmed new COVID-19 cases in their own countries has a significant impact on bureaucrats´ beliefs about future collaboration.

We used STATA and the model used is the random parameter logit model. The other variables are straight forward but q38 gives the distribution of the domestic cooperation and q40 the distribution of the Europe cooperation. In Table 1 (descriptive results).
