In the absence of vaccines to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, in 2020 governments had to respond by rely on non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs). Socioeconomic inequalities likely influenced the uptake of NPIs. Using Norwegian survey data, we study whether income was associated with increased handwashing, keeping 1 m distance, using facemasks increased use of home office, and less use of public transportation. Except for using facemasks and less public transportation in a non-work context, all analyzed NPIs showed an independent positive association with income. Social disparities in NPI uptake may be important drivers of higher risks of disease outcomes for people of lower socioeconomic status.

在没有疫苗可抵抗COVID-19大流行的情况下，到2020年，政府必须依靠非药物干预措施（NPI）做出应对。社会经济不平等可能会影响非营利组织的吸收。使用挪威的调查数据，我们研究了收入是否与增加洗手，保持1 m的距离，使用口罩增加家庭办公室使用以及减少公共交通使用有关。除了在非工作环境中使用口罩和减少公共交通外，所有分析的非营利机构均显示出与收入的独立正相关。NPI摄入量方面的社会差异可能是社会经济地位较低的人群疾病结局风险升高的重要驱动因素。
