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.
demand for services that can be performed remotely or provide solutions to the challenges of reduced personal interactions, such as information and communications technology (ICT), and deliveries, has increased significantly. In a span of three months, the pandemic has resulted in a 63 percent reduction in demand for hotels, while increasing demand for ICT by a comparable rate
A source on the matter.
More bad effects than the negative impact. Covid has destroyed everything. I used to think that nothing could possibly make a place of worship quieter.. It turned out that it was covid that made that possible. Many people are depressed and lost their minds because of covid.. I hope this ends soon..whatever the benefits of online money are, money is still more delicious than real results.
