Covid-19 Pandemic

Economic Consequence-Harsh

The economy lost its money production from all non essential businesses. Some essential businesses include food suppliers, health care providers, transportation services, community services and construction virus.

The government has created a funding system that provided $2,000 if you or your family has been affected by COVID-19

It is undesirable because it is really affected everyone who has lost their jobs in a negative way, and It has a negative impact on the economic stability because most of the main income sources have been shut down to prevent the spread

All religious institutions have been shut down, so this disrupts with many peoples beliefs and religions.

All education has been online since April 6, 2020 and all students who go to publicly funded schools have not been in school since March 13, 2020 but now we have switched back to school and some people take it online where others take it at school sometimes.

Environmental Consequences

Many countries have made strict rules on how to sort their waste, making their carbon footprint smaller, wildlife has been roaming around more often, habitat is more healthy, trees sustain life longer Pollution levels have been lowered, emission levels decreased, coal use fell, NO2 emissions fading away.

A pandemic recession may generate poverty, which affects conservation and areas that are protected by reducing funding and increasing human pressure on species. Many conservation groups are covering medical expenses. These expenses reduce the budget for conservation work and replacement staff and HIV/AIDS cost.

Conservation groups believe it is important to keep our nature protected to prevent future crises. This forced deep cuts in federal funding just for the scientific research needed to protect our nature.conservation group Ontario Nature says that social distancing can positively and negatively affect nature. The people that stay home and need to work can emit more individual emissions because of their own use. For example, a heater to keep them warm all day while they work.

Only a select group of people work from home. The rest of the majority has to adjust to this lifestyle and is not easy for them. A huge change is social distancing. Going out less, cancelled plans with family stayed at home more and have gone shopping less. Statistics show 44% of the United States shop online more than they used to. These are all major adjustments.

As of today, there have been 57,681 total cases of COVID-19 in Ontario according to Peel Public Health.

The Peel memorial Centre offers COVID-19 testing in Brampton.

Some prevention strategies include, staying quarantined inside your home and only leaving your home for necessary reasons, washing your hands with water and soap, keeping a 6ft distance from everyone when you are outside, and avoiding touching your face.

The health officials of Ontario have told the public to self-quarantine themselves for 14 days after any exposure to COVID and monitor for a fever, cough or breathing difficulties. If all these symptoms are still present after 14 days, you are told to contact your healthcare provider or to go get tested from any one of the testing stations.

Global Consequence-Harsh

The pandemic is a problem all over the world infecting every country throughout the world. There have been 37,022,485 cases worldwide and 1,070,421 deaths all over the world due to Covid- 19. These numbers are still set to dramatically rise with no vaccine made. The countries I'll be focusing on are Italy, America, and Canada.

Covid-19 hit Italy like a storm putting them as the most infected before America took over back in March. Italy has 344 k of worldwide cases and about 36 thousand of worldwide deaths . These numbers are huge as there are 195 countries in the world. With over a lot of the cases coming from Italy, they had to make the choice of completely locking down the country. They have quite possibly been hit the hardest as they were one of the first countries to shut down. Their doctors didn't see it coming and they now have a shortage of doctors due to 100's of doctors being dead. Initial lockdowns in these parts began on February 21st. They have closed every border, and have been on a national quarantine since March 9th. The cases have somewhat slowed down since then since people understand now.

Canada has been handling the case very well for a worldwide powerhouse. Canada has also seen 9,586 total deaths which is not a lot of total deaths worldwide. Canada was hit later then a lot of other countries which gave them more time to prepare. On March 16th, Canada brought in a travel ban to prevent people from bringing the virus. Shortly, they closed the America-Canada border to stop the spread. The country closed all unnecessary businesses only keeping essentials such as grocery stores, and gas stations open in late March. Canadians were encouraged to stay indoors and not go outside if not needed. Police have also been fining people about an average of 700 dollars for not following rules and going out a lot with people. If you had just come back from another country, you must stay isolated for 14 days, if not criminal charges could be applied.

America has been hit the hardest most recently. Many people refuse to stay indoors for no good reason. States like California, and New York have been shut down with essentials only left open. For some reason President Trump is not being careful on national lockdowns on America, leaving states to take actions for themselves .Like a lot of other countries American's have been encouraged to stay indoors. As of October 9th 2020, America has the most confirmed Covid-19 cases at 7,879,565 which is the highest number. America has a huge 26% of worldwide cases
