S M Nazmuz Sakib

No n5237, SocArXiv from Center for Open Science

Abstract: The emergence of COVID-19 has profoundly affected social lives and economies globally, and unfortunately the vulnerable low-income population of the world has been adversely affected. On the whole, Covid19 has not only increased human causes, but containment measures have had a negative impact on societies, particularly low-income populations. Widespread adoption of containment measures such as lockdown has led to adverse effects such as mental health disorders, increased economic inequality, decreased employment opportunities, increased poverty trends, loss of income and spending, and other socio-economic consequences that have greatly damaged the lives of economically vulnerable households. . To analyze the effects of the pandemic on low-income households, The purpose of this research is to conduct a survey of the emerging literature on the effects of Covid19, examine the government's response, and recommend policies that will reduce harm to the low-income community. The increasing number of research studies published on the pandemic last year will give a deep insight into the misadventures and containment measures related to Covid19.
