Recommendation

COVID-19 has created massive disruption around the world. Its health ramifications are enormous but only one part of the disease’s impact, as this informative compendium of analyses from a multinational group of researchers shows. The financial distress from economic shutdowns is staggering, but the lockdown did generate a positive externality: a large-scale reduction in fossil fuel consumption. Executives, business owners and policy experts will find this a comprehensive report on the overall effects of the pandemic.

Take-Aways

  • Short-term COVID-19 economic losses were vast.
  • The environmental impact of the lockdowns was historic.
  • Officials are dealing with the ongoing COVID-19 crisis and looking to rebuild a post-pandemic economy.
