GLO Discussion Paper 1360, 2023. With Olena Nizalova.
Tuberculosis remains a significant regional health burden in Ukraine, with prevalence varying sharply across oblasts. We link regional TB incidence to worker- and firm-level productivity outcomes, asking how much of Ukraine’s regional productivity gap this specific health channel can account for — evidence with direct relevance to postwar health and labour policy.
