I think most of us would rather not have had COVID. It has been devastating for many economies and it took a bad toll on people. However it has had some side benefits (some may argue that having Trump removed for now may be one of them, LOL).
I am talking about the digital revolution that was already taking place, yet still had some bumps along the road to occur, and has been forcefully implemented by many companies that required their people to keep on working. I am also talking about the immense number of new influencers and subscription services that had increased their adept several times-fold. All this would have taken ages otherwise.

I agree with what you say, I believe that whatever happens in this world there must be benefits. like the covid virus which has not gone away until now, there must be benefits. one of the benefits in my opinion is that covid teaches all humans to be more productive in finding income. when everyone is required to do work activities only from home, even learning activities from home, then everyone will take advantage of existing technology for their daily activities. With today's increasingly sophisticated technology, one can earn income only from home, I am sure that one day the unemployment rate will decrease, and it will advance the world into the future.I am talking about the digital revolution that was already taking place, yet still had some bumps along the road to occur, and has been forcefully implemented by many companies that required their people to keep on working.
