Garcimartin, Carlos, Jeronimo Roca & Ana Karen Diaz Mendez, Jun 2021, Recaudación potencial del IVA a la economía digital en
Centroamérica, Panamá y República Dominicana, This work estimates the potential VAT revenues that could be achieved by taxing the digital economy in the countries of Central America, Panama, and the Dominican Republic. The study uses data provided by Statista. However, it is worth noting that, in practice, applying VAT to the digital economy is a process that takes time and is not easy. For this reason, these estimates should be understood as a maximum potential tax collection once the sufficient ground has been covered, not as something that can become a reality shortly after VAT is introduced, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.18235/0003330

Konte, Maty, Gideon Ndubuisi & Amamchukwu Okafor, 2021, The Past and the Present: The Nigerian Ebola experience and the Covid-19 Pandemic, We identify factors responsible for Nigeria's victory over EVD, through a comparative analysis. We also evaluate Nigeria’s country-wide response to Covid-19, while drawing inference from its past success on EVD to underpin factors that may have impeded the country’s from mimicking its successful erstwhile country-wide response in the fight against EVD. We complement this analysis with recent surveys for Nigeria to assess the spatial disparities in terms of vulnerability and shocks to Covid-19 and explore the spatial distribution of government and non-government assistance across the different regions
