Влияние пандемии COVID-19 на социально-экономическое развитие стран
The economic development of a country is one of the main factors that characterize the state of the state, determining the dynamics of its development and position at the international level. During 2019 -2020, a pandemic of coronavirus infection was recorded in the world, which claimed millions of human lives and caused significant damage to the socio-economic development of countries.
The paper analyzes how restrictive measures taken by governments of different countries during the COVID-19 pandemic affected the socio-economic development of these countries. An approach to assessing the severity of the measures taken on the basis of cluster analysis is proposed and a comparative analysis of changes in the main socio-economic indicators under the restrictive measures taken by governments is carried out.
The analysis of the obtained results allows us to conclude that the degree of change in the analyzed indicators was affected not only by the already existing socio-economic situation in the countries, but also had a significant impact on the restrictive measures and the degree of their severity, which were undertaken by the government of each country to combat the spread of COVID-19 coronavirus infection.
