What The Study Did: This analysis found that residents in states that lifted eviction moratoria had increased risk of receiving a COVID-19 diagnosis 12 weeks after the moratorium was lifted relative to residents in states where moratoria remained in place. These associations increased over time, particularly among individuals with more existing medical conditions and lower socioeconomic status.
