Abstract

In December 2019, the first case of a new virus COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2), called Coronavirus, was reported in Wuhan, China. At that time, almost no one paid any attention to him. However, the new pathogen proved to be highly infectious and dangerous, resulting in about 3-5% death. Over the next few months, the coronavirus spread around the world. In mid-April, the total number of infections is rapidly approaching the psychological threshold of two and a half million, which has so far resulted in one hundred and thirty-five thousand deaths. Given the large number of lives already lost and the potential for the virus to spread, and given its significant public impact on economies and societies, it is widely recognized that the coronavirus poses the greatest challenge to humanity after World War II. But in this paper, the author will discuss the impact of the new virus on the economic situation of countries as well as the social situation after forcing people around the world to stay at home, which is useful in reducing infection.
