Cost-benefit Analysis Lecture 1 Homework

1.1 Benefits – Highly reduced transmission of Covid-19 in the air, likely resulting in
reduced levels of deaths across the country, possibly allowing “normal” life to
continue in less time than if it wasn’t introduced. Other countries may follow, which
could lead to more vulnerable people being safer.
Costs – Restricts peoples freedom of choice; they may feel constrained even in public
areas. Could lead to possible protests/riots, which may even lead to more Covid-19
transmission than before.
