*Poisson GEE results are presented as predictive margins and marginal effects so they represent changes on the same additive scale as the linear models.
†Difference-in-differences estimates are estimated as the mean of the level 5 lockdown period minus the mean of the prelockdown period, comparing 2020 with 2019. Estimates are based on a period-by-year interaction term fit via linear mixed models.
