This article aims at answering the following questions: (1) What is the influence of age structure on the spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)? (2) What can be the impact of stringency policy (policy responses to the coronavirus pandemic) on the spread of COVID-19? (3) What might be the quantitative effect of development levelincome and number of hospital beds on the number of deaths due to the COVID-19 epidemic? By employing the methodologies of generalized linear model, generalized moments method, and quantile regression models, this article reveals that the shares of median age, age 65, and age 70 and older population have significant positive impacts on the spread of COVID-19 and that the share of age 70 and older people in the population has a relatively greater influence on the spread of the pandemic. The second output of this research is the significant impact of stringency policy on diminishing COVID-19 total cases. The third finding of this paper reveals that the number of hospital beds appears to be vital in reducing the total number of COVID-19 deaths, while GDP per capita does not affect much the level of deaths of the COVID-19 pandemic. Finally, this article suggests some governmental health policies to control and decrease the spread of COVID-19.

In this research, we aim at exploring the influence of renewables on industrial production (Ip) in the US by following continuous wavelet coherence and partial continuous wavelet coherence analyses. To this end, we observed the co-movements between, biofuels and Ip, solar and Ip, wind and Ip, geothermal and Ip, wood and Ip, and, waste and Ip in the US for the monthly period from January 1989 to November 2016. The primary motivations behind this research are twofold. Firstly, it attempts to reach the co-movements, if exists, between renewables' consumption and industrial production by following time domain and frequency domain analyses. Secondly, it aims at observing the potential co-movements between renewable energy sources (geothermal, solar, wind, biofuels, wood, and, waste) and Ip by adding some control variables (fossil fuels, total biomass etc.) into the wavelet models to understand clearly the responses of the industrial production to the impulses in renewables in both short term and long term periods. The paper hence eventually reveals significant effects of geothermal, wind, solar, biofuels, wood, and, waste on US industrial production in short term cycles and long term cycles. Thereby, following this paper's results of continuous wavelet analyses which depict the impact of renewables on US economy at 1-3-year frequency and 3-8-year frequency for the time period from January 1989 to November 2016, one might provide policy makers with relevant current and future efficient renewables' energy policy for the US and other countries which have similar structures with the US.
