5.3. COVID-19 pandemic and food security issues: causes and consequences
Today, scientists, analysts, politicians, government officials and members of the public
around the world are concerned about the socio-economic consequences of the coronavirus
pandemic that humanity is experiencing. eliminate a heated discussion began about ways to
achieve it.
Because coronavirus nearly half the world's population has been quarantined to prevent
it. As a result, large factories stopped and the transport and tourism industries stagnated.
Unemployment, the decline of financial markets, in a word, a parallel reduction in aggregate
demand and aggregate supply in the world indicate that a “unique” economic crisis is
beginning. In turn, it is no secret that the corona virus is not only a biological virus, but also
an economic virus. Even today, many are already feeling its blows. Consequently, the world
is stuck between two herbs related to overcoming the biological virus and the economic virus.
Experts from the World Health Organization warn that "this disease has not yet reached
its peak. We must be prepared for various emergency situations. It is too early to ease
