Abstract

Bangladesh is ranked as one of the worst-hit countries in terms of total corona infections. Affecting the social, economic, and health sectors of the country, COVID-19 pandemic has dampened the overall economic well-being and thus GDP growth along with skyrocketing poverty, inequality, and unemployment nationwide. To tackle these crises, the government has initiated effective policy measures which, in turn, enhanced the recovery rate of COVID-19 positive patients and strengthened the recovery of economic indicators. Therefore, this article suggests other hard-hit COVID-19 affected countries following the recovery model of Bangladesh to encounter the economic and health challenges due to the coronavirus pandemic.
