Abstract
This paper examines high-frequency patterns that occur in the experiences with, behaviors during, and attitudes toward COVID-19 among people with disabilities since the pandemic began. It also examines the timing and predictors of plans to apply for Social Security benefits as a result of the pandemic. It uses biweekly and monthly data from the Understanding Coronavirus in America survey of the Understanding America Study and from the Household Pulse Survey. All analyses are descriptive.
