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
Possibly you might not be correct on this issue, many projects during the covid-19/went down because of the humanity side of these projects. Remember, during project development teams are given different types of task and these task are done by humans, the stay at home would not allow team assigned do their work, reason why many would step down to resume back after the covid-19. Although many of the projects never stop their project during the lockdown which was caused by the covid-19 pandemic.
