Behavioral science policy recommendations early in the pandemic were *largely correct*. Our global collaboration of 80+ experts covers 747 studies (average sample size over 16,000!) & supports 16 of 19 claims. Many lessons for science & policy. Out today in Nature: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
we thank the reviewers for their helpful suggestions which have greatly improved the paper
