Policy responses to COVID-19 in Uruguay

Elizabeth Bucacos, Patricia Carballo, Miguel Mello, Jorge Ponce

COVID-19 caused an overwhelming wave with large social and economic consequences and huge policy challenges. We provide an evaluation of the impact of the social, economic, and financial policy measures undertaken to ameliorate its negative consequences in Uruguay. Overall, we find that the policy response had a significant effect on mitigating the negative impact of the pandemic in the country. We also discuss policy implications.
