How will the outbreak affect the economy?

Coronavirus lockdowns and shutting of businesses has negatively affected the economy of every country. Pakistan is a developing country that cannot afford a big loss in our economy. Large sections of our population live below or near the poverty line. The government is concerned greatly about the economy and several plans have been implemented to stabilize the economy during and after the lockdown. It is important to stay updated with the news and listen to government updates about the economic situation. The best way for Pakistanis to avoid major losses to our economy and jobs is to follow government guidelines now to stop the spread of the virus so businesses can open and people can begin going to their job as soon as possible.
