| Summary: | The economic impact of the second wave
of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in Myanmar has been
significantly more severe on businesses than the first wave,
according to the World Bank’s firm-level survey. The latest
survey, the fourth in a series of eight surveys planned, was
administered between September 11, 2020 and October 1, 2020,
and covered a nationally representative sample of five
hundred firms. The fourth round of the survey overlaps with
the beginning of the second-wave of Coronavirus (COVID-19)
cases and re-introduction of stay-at-home orders that
started initially in Rakhine in late August and then in
Yangon in early September. This note provides a snapshot of
how the firms' outcomes and response to the pandemic
have changed between the months of September and October 2020. |
