Examining excess mortality associated with the pandemic for renters threatened with eviction

JAMA NETWORK

About The Study: Housing instability, as measured by eviction filings, was associated with a significantly increased risk of death over the first 20 months of the COVID-19 pandemic in this study that included 282,000 renters who received an eviction filing. Eviction prevention efforts may have reduced excess mortality for renters during this period. 

Authors: Nick Graetz, Ph.D., of Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey, is the corresponding author.
