摘要：During the second half of 2020, many European governments responded to the resurging transmission of SARS-CoV-2 with wide-ranging non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) . These eforts were often highly targeted at the regional level and included fne-grained NPIs . This paper describes a new dataset designed for the accurate recording of NPIs in Europe’s second wave to allow precise modelling of NPI efectiveness . The dataset includes interventions from 114 regions in 7 European countries during the period from the 1st August 2020 to the 9th January 2021. The paper includes NPI defnitions tailored to the second wave following an exploratory data collection . Each entry has been extensively validated by semi-independent double entry, comparison with existing datasets, and, when necessary, discussion with local epidemiologists . The dataset has considerable potential for use in disentangling the efectiveness of NPIs and comparing the impact of interventions across diferent phases of the pandemic .
