Do not be fooled, Cov-19 doesn't disturb new project from launching, few new projects are using Cov-19 to make excuse, good quality projects don't see any reason to hold because of the pandemic, any project that do this should be considered as Controlled by weak team
I cannot fully agree with you because even a genuine project will have a difficulty in these time of crisis where covid-19 is present as most of the investors are affected with the situation and some of them are force to use investment money in buying foods just to survive the lock down if in case their country imposes it. Aside from covid-19, the market also crashes pretty hard and as you can see the effect to it to the project owner is pretty bad because most of the investors will likely to play safe in this market condition and investing to the newly project will not be their top priority.
Many projects are struggling in this kind of market condition so I cannot blame those genuine project that are making some excuses in this time of crisis but for projects who were able to become successful in this type of market condition, I salute to them.
