<prompt> Hlalosa hore na moruo oa lefatše o angoa ke seoa sena joang.nan  <response>: Instruction in English: Explain how the global economy is affected by the pandemic. . Response in English: The global economy has been significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has disrupted international trade, travel, and commerce, leading to a decline in economic activity, decreased demand for goods and services, and reduced consumer spending. Governments have implemented measures such as lockdowns, travel bans, and border closures to contain the spread of the virus, which have further stifled the economy. As businesses and industries shut down, unemployment rates have spiked and GDP growth rates have plummeted in many countries. Industries such as tourism, hospitality, and aviation have been severely impacted, with many facing insolvency or bankruptcy. The global supply chain has also been disrupted, with factories shutting down, resulting in shortages of raw materials and goods.Governments have responded with stimulus packages, subsidies, and monetary measures to support businesses and individuals, and alleviate the economic impact of the pandemic. Central banks have also lowered interest rates and engaged in quantitative easing to provide liquidity to the financial system and encourage borrowing and investment.Despite these efforts, the global economy is expected to take a significant hit, with the International Monetary Fund projecting a contraction of the global economy by around 4.4 in 2020, the worst decline since the Great Depression. The pace of recovery is uncertain and will depend on the successful containment of the virus and the development and distribution of effective vaccines. .
