- Aufsatz/Enthaltenes Werk
Like many other countries, the Philippines has suffered enormously from the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (2019-nCOV). From travel bans to community quarantine and one of the worlds strictest and longest lockdowns, made possible by enhanced emergency measures, the Philippine government has enforced a series of dedicated measures targeted to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. The consequent and untold impacts of both the health crisis and specific policy measures are in part indicated by intensifying economic hardships that may be the undoing of a country that had been poised to overtake some of the biggest economies in Asia before the pandemic.
