Do you think this was a man-made virus to destabilize the world's economy and buy huge shares so that a vaccinations can be rolled out once the enough damage is made ?
There's a different rumored on it but once there's no solid evidence that proving this virus was man-made. Even people thinking that it is a biological weapon, but as what I'd like said, still rumored and no one knows about it as long as it is originated from the country of China. Until now, this is one of the biggest puzzles from experts. Other people say it's coming from the bats. So, there's no vaccine found yet, do you think the damage has not enough to be made the vaccine out?
In any events there are theories made especially when it happens to be global where wide arrays of possibilities are being illustrated by many people. A laboratory in US already tracked the genetic resemblance of the virus and said to be formed in natural causes, so it is futile anymore to talk about the virus if it is being man-made or natural born. I guess this is also why we are having hard time to find the vaccine due to it being natural, coz if it's not we can just basically reverse engineer it.

Based on this article, those sectors were blooming amid the pandemic situation.

  • Medical supplies
  • Delivery cargo firms
  • Big retail markets
  • Online Games and book companies
  • Online shopping platforms
This comes up in my mind that the winner most common is those who are in a business that in demand during the pandemic. 
As expected these things were going to boom during this time especially the medical supplies, the whole world is closing at the moment yet there they are factory of gloves and masks working 24/7.
The business in seasonal, and I hope it don't get to happen more often  Cheesy

It is weird that the UK appear to be trying to sell 2 bullion doses of the vaccine already (at least they have contracts to produce that amount from part public and part private schemes)... I think Germany and other European countries studying the virus have similar schemes. I doubt anyone would want a vaccine from China, that'd be a last resort.
I believe the WHO are not playing a vital about the COVID 19 vaccine because are not passing good information about it to the masses.
With that been said, it been awhile since follow the update news about the vaccine and the last i check the UK vaccine is yet to be endorse by WHO while the China seems to be keeping information about their vaccine.



The UK are still in a testing phase so I'd see no reason for them to pass information about the 3 vaccines being produced until they have one that works effectively...

I don't know how the who works but would cdc europa not be better suited to advise and collaborate information on vaccines within the EU (and probably the USA based on the trump administration's recent rejection of the WHO - unless that was over dramatised)...
Yes, CDC is the better committee which every country that want to develop COVID 19 vaccine will collaborate with since their role is to control the spread of any infection diseases but CDC and WHO operated almost the same way cause they are like a partner in the health scheme and any vaccine introduced and endorse by WHO may not be license cause they played a global vital role of health and disease authority.
Let's hope a vaccine that 100% confirm is detected so everything will be back to normal cause plans of people for this year are already scattered.

The winners are those who made a significant profit during this pandemic. The pharma companies, medical companies and almost every industry that relates to the fight of COVID are the biggest winners. Looking at the bright side and for the purpose of discussions only about the economic status, also the news that China bought a huge chunk of brink stocks, they are also the winners. But for the declaration of winners in the combat of COVID, those are the countries like Taiwan and New Zealand who have beaten the virus.
Those are the winners in terms of profit and I have to go to those country who makes no fresh Virus cases on their places but as long as there’s no cure, we should not be over confident about this thing.

If you still make money during this time then you’re a winner, just keep healthy and survive this pandemic as much as possible. Bigger populations of big country are on a higher risk so stay calm and follow the healthy protocols of your government.
If you can migrate to those countries and you have all the means to that to feel safe, do it. As the saying goes "prevention is better than cure" and those countries that have prevented the spread of the virus did well.
A good definition for people who are still able to make some during the pandemic, the world economy has been reset and things are starting to go back slowly, we'll survive this crisis and all will be the winners.

We are aware that most of the countries economy has gone for a toss and many are at the brink of collapse but who has been the biggest winner of this pandemic? is it corporate medical industry who are charging abnormous fee for treatment or else a particular regime who is silently buying stakes of major groups at lower price during this situation? Do you think this was a man-made virus to destabilize the world's economy and buy huge shares so that a vaccinations can be rolled out once the enough damage is made ?
this is not a race that will be the champion. this is a big disaster for the country and who can survive this pandemic virus. if this pandemic still lasts long on earth I think Musiba will gradually kill everything as well as humans and the country's economy due to a viral pandemic. We are just waiting for the inventor of the drug to destroy the yet unknown pandemic
Exactly, this is not a race or who is the biggest winner.

Everyone is really suffering and even if there are lots of people who take advantage of this situation, we cannot remove the fact that there is no exception. Everyone is really affected and we are all facing a difficult situation from this pandemic.

Because of this pandemic, this very bad situation, should we think of the winner? Winner of what? Well, that's not fine for me. Whatever the reason behind this pandemic, we should not call them winners. if they were real, and we called them winners, they will be overproud and win this world. I really don't want this to happen.

...I have also not heard of hospitals charging covid-19 patients high (or any) fees for treatment...
Me, too. '
In my country, the covid19 victims are not charged to get treatment in the hospital. the government is responsible of them. Except, those who want to check their rapid test by their won. they must pay and now the cost is affordable enough. Many hospitals and also medicals centers face difficulties during the pandemic, they fight against the virus with their own life. They cannot ignore the job and they are responsible for fo the patients of COVID-19. And they have a high risk to be infected by the virus. Can we call them the winner? No.

Countries all over the world has been affected by this pandemic,sad to say that instead of helping each other many are choosing to take advantage. Medical supplies like mask ,alcohol, and PPE are so expensive now and even test kits.

Winner in what sense, making a profit or winner in terms of generating fear and completely changing the functioning of society? I would not say that things can be viewed in such a simple way, it is much more complex than it seems, and it is still far from being able to predict when the virus could be brought under control in any way. But if you want the simplest answer, it’s actually always the same - The winners are those who emerge from each crisis even richer than they were before, and the losers are those who have been poorer and become even poorer.

Conspiracy theories are just one after the other, but they are just theories and no one is proving anything with solid evidence. If we believe the participants of Military World Games (Wuhan - October 2019) something was already happening at that time, because the participants were measured the temperature on arrival, and Wuhan was already eerily deserted.

It is weird that the UK appear to be trying to sell 2 bullion doses of the vaccine already (at least they have contracts to produce that amount from part public and part private schemes)... I think Germany and other European countries studying the virus have similar schemes. I doubt anyone would want a vaccine from China, that'd be a last resort.

I have not found such information, but I know that there is an agreement at the level of several EU countries that any effective vaccine must be "accessible, available and affordable everywhere in the EU." In this regard, most talk is about the vaccine produced in cooperation with Italy and the UK (AstraZeneca&Oxford University), and the first doses should be available as early as this year for the entire EU, and for the USA as well - while India has been allowed to produce one billion doses of vaccine.

If China makes an effective vaccine, I have no doubt that the world will use it - just as most protective equipment today comes from China, and most have no choice but to buy from them.

On the small scale probably scammers who had piles of facemasks lying around in their warehouses before the outbreak and were able to make millions selling them at high prices.
Such a golden opportunity doesn't come more than once in a lifetime, but a single good decision can set you up for life. Many corrupt politicians took part in the face mask scam and made money by forcing people to buy those good for nothing pieces of cloth.
The other winners were companies who produced covid tests that weren't working, but were bought by many countries anyway.

For me, it's the essential industry which provides necessities such as foods (particularly canned goods) because it is what the government often give to their people as help. So even in terms of the pandemic or other calamities, they will still operate and even produce more supplies because of the demand. Those higher-ups are the ones benefiting from it the most because even without going outside their house, as long as their business is operating, they are generating income.

It's hard to believe if they purposely made the virus or not since there is no enough and concrete evidence, but one thing for sure is that a lot of people are already struggling so much because of this pandemic.

Small local delivery services saw tremendous profits as the result of quarantine measures. Companies that are focused on online, entertainment, shopping, services also quite naturally experienced higher profits. Zoom might easily be the biggest gainer, since the quarantine made this app truly mainstream.

E-commerce ventures of all sizes benefited from the pandemic, while the local store operators saw a dip in their business. In my country (India), the government tried to put obstacles for the eCommerce players, in order to help the local retail shops. But their measures proved to be counter-productive. Even now, they are hindering the services of eCommerce providers such as Amazon.in and Flipkart, but ordinary people continue to prefer them.

I don't know if this is in purpose or not but all I know is that people and countries are actually taking advantage of the situation. They are doing it for themselves and for the country, I guess everyone would do the same.

I wouldn’t want to delve into the conspiracy theory of the pandemic being man made. Although, it is very debatable. There are always winners in every situation. Surely, the medical industry is one of the biggest winners, and there is more win to come for them. Especially when the vaccines starts rolling out. The big winners vary across countries. Like in my country, the biggest winners aren’t even the health care system but those in charge of making the healthcare systems better; Politicians, policy makers and more. The pandemic has become an opportunity for some high heads to win big.

Probably, those corrupt politicians are really benefiting this pandemic as they have the power to manipulate the government's budget for this pandemic. A responsible government is really what we need for us to become the biggest winner amidst this pandemic. Once we have a good governance, we can really overcome this economic crisis that we are experiencing.

We can't deny that we, humans, are also the reason why the cases of this Covid-19 is still increasing due to our undisciplined behavior because even those authorities are violating the law that is implemented regarding this pandemic. Our government is disorganized, so how can we achieve the success towards this pandemic if we have an abrupt justice system.

Based on my observation on what is happening right now, the biggest winner here in our country during Covid-19 is the our government.

Out of all those debts that they are getting from any organizations including the World Bank, we don't feel any improvement and relief from them. We really don't know where are all of those budget for this pandemic are going to because the risk of cases here is still increasing and some people are still suffering.

Maybe, it depends on the hospital if it is owned by a government or not. But still Medical sectors are the one who are getting a lot of profit because this is their season. Their lives are at risk and the government should allocate those budget for them to speed up the recovery and support them with the equipment that they need.

Economy all over the world has been affected by this Covid19 virus and I think no one has ever gained from this except those people that took advantage of this pandemic to sell necessities with double or triple pricing of its capital. And if it were to be man-made virus, what a cruel humanity that is but I think it's not and I'm hoping that it really isn't or else I'll lose faith in humanity.

We are still at an early stage of the coronavirus pandemic,so it's too early to decide who is winning.
It's pretty clear that the pharmaceutical industry is going to be one of the biggest winners,but let's not be so optimistic about the creation of a working vaccine against the virus.
The global recession is a great opportunity for come countries and corporations to buy cheap and undervalued assets,so they are taking advantage of that opportunity.This is completely normal,but I don't know whether or not the virus was created deliberately,just because a part of the global elite wanted cheap assets and more power.
The question about who created the virus will remain unanswered forever,because there won't be enough evidence.
