COVID has a positive impact and a negative impact on society, we can see the positive impact of COVID, namely people who do not have money or unemployed people will think to find ways to make money during COVID, I see those who do not have a job will enter the world of the eye crypto money then they buy Bitcoin and Altcoins to trade and to invest this is what makes the price of Bitcoin and Altcoins even higher during COVID.
The negative impact of COVID is that human mortality rates are increasing and more people are unemployed.

I agree, it does seem to have accelerated something that was inevitably happening anyway: the transition to the digital world.

Another thing I see that has changed is the meetings: the long trips that used to be made to meet in person, with all the economic expense that implies. I think COVID has definitely changed that. There will still be trips to meet in person, but far fewer.
That is a good thing, it seemed businesses put a lot of weight in face to face meetings when technology has allowed you to meet face to face remotely for a long time already, they were just afraid to make the transition and the pandemic has forced them to do so, this will also allow employees to have more liberty where they live, in the past you needed to live near your job but now if all your job activities can be done remotely then you can work from any point on the planet and that is a great thing.

From the Covid disaster, of course, it has a very big impact on everyone, but behind it all there will be a lesson in itself. Although most countries have experienced economic collapse due to this pandemic, but behind it all have been able to give birth to new innovations from various ideas to overcome this problem. Like today, activities via the internet are increasingly being used by everyone, because the government is able to provide an appeal to reduce physical contact in this way, so that the existence of Covid is able to create a digital revolution simultaneously.
tbh the digital revolution only happening from either developed countries or middle-income countries where most of them already exposed to internet to begin with, the rest of countries that aren't really exposed to internet further falling down instead of birthing a new innovation.
but to be fair, if we see from the advancement of technology in this past year in an entire planet we could see that it has been growing so fast it's actually surprises me. Though, at this current time amid pandemic government have the most important role to allow the country succesfully taking advantage of the current pandemic where they could enforce some new regulation for that.

Covid-19 has brought a lot of challenges to everyone. Be it lower, middle, and upper bracket of the society, these people have been forced to face difficult circumstances in order to survive. Despite the negative impact of covid, we can't disregard the fact that it somehow pushed us to adapt from rapid changes, to be innovative, and to transition from the modern age gradually.

Digital transactions have been a thing ever since the pandemic started. It bloomed because of strict regulations imposed by the government. People have high demand for transactions that involve delivery services to avoid the hassle and risk of contacting the virus. Looking at the positive side, it helped the countries to keep up with fast-paced technology and innovation. The science field was challenged to produce a vaccine that is safe and effective in the shortest time possible. The industry decided to adapt by allowing remote and flexible working. The meetings, seminars, and classes are now all online. These are the things that covid forced people to discover and try new things that weren't considered pre-pandemic time.

Now that there are already vaccines rolling out on the market, I hope things will come back to normal where we can freely move. Things aforementioned were great, but it still has repercussions especially to the sectors that are not suitable for this kind of setup.

Well, it forced people into going online for education, work and everything else. Which is a good thing, because there were many conservative countries in the world including mine which believed internet and phones are distractions and that memorizing from a book is the only true solution which is not. Now, we are forced to take online classes which will surely impact the future covid free country too when we won't view it with the same perception!

As most of the people were affected by COVID 19 pandemic, they are trying to look for the new opportunity for another income purposes. That is why it opens the mind of the people to enter a new kind of development that also helps them become capable of acquiring profits at the same time.
 
 Also, as internet and online jobs seems to be in demand nowadays, cryptocurrency related activities also increased like trading, investing, staking, etc. The digital era (compared from the years where covid didnt hit the world) has improved.

This pandemic has convinced me that second jobs and investing are very important. We have seen a lot of economic turnover that has slowed down and even been paralyzed due to restricted activities. and I increasingly believe this is a way to introduce the era of economic gig where work does not have to go to the office, but can be done from home by using the internet network. for example, trading stocks and cryptocurrencies, content creators, YouTubers, etc. This also opened the eyes of many people around me who previously underestimated me because they had never seen me go to work, so they were considered unemployed.

this is smart work.

because of the pandemic, most people have to find more efficient ways for their daily needs, one of which is that people start working remotely using internet services and many people are starting to switch cryptocurrency investments, thus making the price and popularity of cryptocurrencies currently exploding.

It seems that this COVID not only give negative impact but also give positive impact in other side. Many people have been suffering because of loss job or decreasing profit during this pandemic, but I think this pandemic also give opportunity for those who don't give up. This pandemic is creating demand for delivery service, mask, and healthy food that combined with technology and internet. I hope we keep healthy during this pandemic.
Well, when you put it in the population count wise, it obviously did hurt a lot more than it helped, that is not even a discussion and the difference is staggering I am sure it must be 1000 in 1 that earned from this. For example Amazon made so much money during this period, it made insane returns and it has always been profitable business but during this period it was even more.

The benefit to workers is that they got to keep their horrible jobs but a horrible job is better than no job during this period so they are unhappy but at least not starving. Benefit to shareholders and Jeff Bezos is staggering of course.

Smaller business earned as well, a friend of mine was doing that gun type fever thingy waaay before pandemic, he is a medical equipment manufacturer, he manufactured many things, including even arm carry things when you break it, no idea what is that called neither. For the past 1 year he has been only making those contactless thermometer gun like thingies and made more money than he has ever made.

Covid-19 on a generally scale wasn't so helpful if we look at it, the world suffered on a large scale. From health to economy, mood of living, entertainment and even food choice. It wasn't an easy one and still, the world is yet to recover fully from the many hardship it brought but then, it also thought the wise who cared to learn a few lessons. It opened people's eyes to viewing opportunities in the face of disaster. People picked up traded with the season, appropriation of needs and wants also, to seek opportunity from the comfort of your home. It also opened the government up and people knew as to how much they are being extorted and more.

No wonder, because every event always has a positive and negative impact. In relation to Covid 19, we have great education, health issues, doing business and everything related to economic growth. regardless of whether it is digital or conventional. because everyone already knows the impact of each based on the situation in which they live.
What is clear, coupled with the existence of a government regulation requiring every citizen to continue working from home, gives a positive impression. This means that we can spend longer time with our family. that way we can do all the work just from home.

The most important thing is to be one of the alternatives to saving the economy, I always hope that every incident can provide us so that we can continue to be better individuals.

In this life we ​​always start with what is called a partner.  Hot and cold, sunny and cloudy, dark and light, and both good and bad.  Not always what we think is bad will always have a bad impact, even though there are many good things in it.  The real proof is this pandemic condition.  It is a form of balance in this world.  If we try to stay positive and don't get lost in the bad things that happen, we will continue to survive with our living conditions.

I don't take loans, ask for sig if I ever do.
It's honestly just the world actually using the improvement we originally had but wasn't exactly used since people had a set/default method that the improvements seemed like an unnecessary change then. I honestly agree that it would've taken ages for it to actually be implemented since the new method wasn't really necessary, but it is an improvement and a lot less hassle (hopefully).

Still, I highly doubt the pros outweigh the cons, like seriously, it just accelerated the already failing economy of most countries, not really a good thing. Also forced a lot of people, in general, to actually adapt quite painfully, add that to how, well, most people's stupidity seemed to have come out in the past lockdowns.

The digital revolution is inevitable, the pandemic has only accelerated it and opened up some new business visions for some parts of entrepreneurship and the economy. So I recently read an article describing how some companies have realized that some jobs can be done much faster and cheaper via Skype or Zoom apps, which will greatly affect the transportation industry (especially airlines) which should lose a significant share of earnings from business trips.

On the other hand, no digital achievements or virtual reality can replace real tourist travel, and if things do not return to normal very soon - many countries that mostly rely on tourism revenues will seriously have to look for some alternatives. I may be old-fashioned, but even before the pandemic, people became more and more socially distant - now it's even more pronounced and going in the direction that our best friends will become smartphones and computers.

What is certain is that nothing will be the same again, even if we manage to suppress the pandemic - people will always ask if something similar can happen again, and of course it can, it's only a matter of time. Cryptocurrencies have, of course, positioned themselves well in all of this, and many argue that it is precisely the pandemic that is largely responsible for their success - although we know there is much more to it than that.

It didn't advance because this virus was already talked around years ago in a medical science journal but they got ignored. I would say that the world already has the tools they just don't want to use it because there was no pandemic and now here we are and everyone is cramming because they don't know what to do, the innovations during this pandemic are almost temporary I guarantee that.

I don't know what part of the world OP could be from but i can categorically tell him/her that the downsides of this pandemic on the global economies is by far more than the upsides. Yes there's a huge surge in the acceptance of digital revolution but a lot of people and economies are suffering greatly right now as a result of that pandemic.

Covid-19 is the worst catastrophe because it does not only affect the economy but also kills millions of innocents. It can either be a cleanse or a purge but further discussion may touch the moral issues.

As you can see, on the biggest scales, the government is the one in charge of how the covid-19 spread and how to seal it within a country. The western has a different approach with arrogance and selfishness causing millions of death and the deadliest zone in the US. Asia countries, on the other hand, take more responsibilities and solutions (some of them are tough and strict) to force people to stay at home as well as wear masks. The culture here (I do not know why) creates the belief that by following the government orders, they will be able to defeat the virus. Magically, it works

On the smaller scales, companies that refuse to change their ecosystem and stay in traditional and physical resources are swiped out from the games. There are likely hundreds of thousands of firms and companies that are shut down forever, some of them even have long years of operating. In contrast, there are also new companies, creating new environments for businesses to work from the Internet and they are very successful. Furthermore, people also look at bitcoin as a safe haven, which is stronger than gold, obviously. It is not affected by the current world condition because it is digital. People realize that fact and start to put their money in bitcoin. Consequently, the cryptocurrency world is also beneficial from the new perceptions. New projects are being researched and studied while developers, founders, and investors do their best to advance new implementation, gadgets, and add-ons. This activity does reform the whole crypto aspects which were stagnant for the last 2 years.

Honestly, no one needs the existence of this virus. It only makes everything worse. But when we look at the positive signs, there are also achievements and developments being boosted with an outstanding speed.

However, I do not want to say thanks to the Virus. I guess, everything happens for a reason, and it also has a price

Covid19 translation has resumed. Everyone is very confused and worried. The speed of spread is too fast for everyone to turn their hands on. In India, the number of people dying is too much, they have to cremate their bodies. In Vietnam, the number of people infected is 500. Let's strictly follow the government's direction in epidemic prevention. Keep a safe distance, disinfect and wear a medical mask.
