Which industries are currently most affected by the epidemic?

The COVID-19 epidemic is spreading rapidly around the world. Basically, all countries in the world have been affected by the virus. The emergence of the COVID-19 epidemic has also seriously affected all walks of life. So which industry has the greatest impact of the epidemic? Let me tell you my opinion below.

1. Tourism: According to data released by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism at the beginning of the year, domestic tourism revenue alone fell by 61% compared with the same period in 2019 before the epidemic. The world is so big, I want to see it so much. I stayed at home when the epidemic came...

2. Catering industry: As the epidemic continues to spread, every household chooses to cook and have New Year's Eve dinner at home; they rarely go out. The New Year's Eve dinner has been set, and thousands of households will eat at home from the 30th to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year; many restaurants are closed due to policy controls and with almost no traffic; after all, restaurants are the same as movie theaters. They are all places with dense flow of people, closed environment and poor ventilation.

3. Entertainment industry: Entertainment venues such as bars, KTVs and cinemas are high-risk areas for the spread of the epidemic due to dense crowds, closed environments and poor ventilation, so they will be closed during the epidemic.

4. Aviation industry: Aerospace is a very profitable industry. However, due to the epidemic, the flow of people at the airport has been greatly reduced. Value-added industries such as airports and stores have also been hit. Aviation stocks in many countries have fallen seriously. .

5. Impact on the hotel industry: The hotel industry may face major reshuffles and adjustments after this sudden epidemic; many hotels and low-end hotels with insufficient capital chains will face closure and mergers possibility; many larger high-end hotel chains have to adopt measures to increase revenue and reduce expenditure to resist the coming cold winter and trough period.

6. Processing and manufacturing industry: Because there are many orders in the processing and manufacturing industry that need to be completed within a specified time. The processing manufacturing industry requires many workers to work in factories. Due to the impact of the epidemic, many orders in the factory cannot be completed on time. This not only affects the efficiency of processing, but may also lead to compensation for failure to complete orders on time.

7. Taxi industry: Affected by the epidemic, the national taxi industry has been affected, and some car rental companies have even experienced a collective "retirement" of cars. Since March, although many companies have resumed work and production, the taxi industry is still extremely difficult as most people still try to avoid going out or drive themselves when they go out.

8. Film and television industry: The film industry is undoubtedly one of the industries most severely damaged by the epidemic. From film and television production companies to cinema chains, they have all suffered heavy losses. Not long ago, a small number of theaters had resumed operations, but they were soon suspended again. Although the domestic epidemic is basically under control, it is completely out of control abroad. Imported cases may cause a second peak at any time, and the closure of theaters is also a helpless move.

9. Foreign trade industry: Needless to say, the production and operation losses caused by delayed start of operations to small and medium-sized foreign trade enterprises. The epidemic has also affected the purchasing psychology of overseas buyers in the short term. At the same time, the marketing channels of foreign trade companies are blocked, the impact of the epidemic on export shipping, and the inspection threshold for exported goods continue to increase, making the industry even more difficult.

10. Offline education industry: All extracurricular training institutions will be closed during the holidays this year. Nationally, the losses will be at least over 10 billion. Schools are now resuming classes one after another, and the specific time for offline extracurricular training institutions to resume work and production has not yet been determined. Coupled with the current outbreak of the epidemic abroad, the training related to foreign teachers in the education industry is even worse!

11. Express delivery industry: Affected by the epidemic, the operating costs of express logistics companies have increased significantly. Both internal prevention and control of companies and the induction of front-line personnel need to purchase large quantities of protective materials. The labor costs of employees in various places during the isolation period are still high. Normal expenses are required. For example, the total monthly salary of a franchised express delivery company’s 59,000 employees in the direct operation system alone exceeds 300 million yuan, and the total number of employees in the entire network exceeds 400,000. The pressure on labor costs is huge.

In fact, in this epidemic, various industries are closely linked, and no one can survive alone.

The battle against the epidemic is still ongoing around the world. While we are gradually returning to normal life, we still cannot take it lightly because the crisis has not passed yet!

But no matter what, as the country continues to strengthen and improve its epidemic prevention and control measures, the dawn of victory should be not far away! At present, in addition to working hard to do our jobs and have an optimistic attitude towards life, we must also take good care of our bodies. Because in a few years, you can laze on the recliner comfortably and proudly say to your grandson: I am a person who has experienced the COVID-19 epidemic...
