Self-Interest Bias in the Covid-19 Pandemic
In the global crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries attempt to enforce new social norms to prevent the further spread of the coronavirus. A key to the success of these measures is the individual adherence to norms that are collectively beneficial to contain the spread of the pandemic.

Although women prostitutes continue to be seen as the victims of sexual exploitation by males, when these women are arrested they…
