Blog Market Research Impact of COVID19 on the Global Economy
These days, we're all wondering the same things:
In China and South Korea, policy initiatives, healthcare response and social distancing measures have resulted in containing the virus, to a certain extent.
Worldwide, production stock has dropped due to the virus's prolonged effect. Supply chains, the consumer goods industry and manufacturing sectors have been adversely affected, along with the retail industry. Many companies face bankruptcies. In the U.K., for example, airline carrier Flybe has collapsed.
In this scenario, if the virus is not seasonal (as healthcare experts assume), infection cases will continue to grow in the second and third quarter, and healthcare systems will be overwhelmed. The surge of new cases will delay recovery in consumer confidence to the third quarter or beyond, which may lead to recession, with global growth in 2020 falling to 1.5% or less.
