报告摘要： This paper examines the economic impact of COVID-19 in an equilibrium framework. Our model combines two ingredients: (i) beliefs-dependent preferences for economic dynamics and (ii) stochastic SEIRD model with unpredictable birth and vaccine discovery events for disease propagation. We estimate the model based on economic time series and COVID-19 data. We show it explains the behaviors and levels of the S&P 500, the index volatility, and the number of new cases during the recent outbreak, while providing a good match for 25 unconditional moments of economic time series. Beliefs-dependency emerges as a critical ingredient for this comprehensive explanation of short-term dynamics during the COVID-19 outbreak and of long run statistical properties.
