Forbes Indonesia - August 2020

En este asunto

Several countries have spent the past six months tackling the COVID-19 crisis seemingly with a hope that if one can hold one’s breath long enough, it will pass and life can go back to normal. The recent resurgence of the virus in countries that seemed to have gotten over the worse of it, coupled with the beginnings of a greater understanding of the severity of the medical conditions it can cause, indicates we are in for the long haul. Even if a vaccine can be developed quickly, it is still to be proven how effective it will be, how long a dose will last, and how fast it can reach sufficient people to create “herd immunity” on a global scale. All of these will have a great role in restoring the confidence needed to kick-start local consumer- driven and global trade-driven recoveries.
