# August 2023

#############################################################################
# This dataset comprises the responses of a discrete choice experiment 
# to elicit the Dutch citizens' preferences for policy packages to curb the 
# spread of COVID-19 during its endemic phase. 
#
# Each policy package is characterised by six attributes: COVID-19 deaths, 
# physical injuries, mental health problems, severe income problems, 
# delay of surgeries and the stringency of the COVID-19 measures.
