Abstract: The coronavirus (COVID 19) pandemic in Pakistan has entered a critical stage with varying degrees of lockdowns being observed in all provinces. The federal government recently announced another 2-week country-wide lockdown that will continue till the 15th of April, 2020. The economic and social effects of these lockdowns particularly on the segment of the population that comprises daily-waged workers have started to materialize and are being hotly debated in the public and policy domains.
