This article mainly explores the economic and health challenges faced by Bangladesh amid COVID-19 and the policies taken by the government of Bangladesh to tackle the economic and health issues. Bangladesh is ranked as one of the worst-hit countries in terms of total corona infections. Affecting the social, economic, and health sectors of the country, COVID-19 pandemic has dampened the overall economic well-being and thus GDP growth along with skyrocketing poverty, inequality, and unemployment nationwide. To tackle these crises, the government has initiated effective policy measures which, in turn, enhanced the recovery rate of COVID-19 positive patients and strengthened the recovery of economic indicators. Therefore, this article suggests other hard-hit COVID-19 affected countries following the recovery model of Bangladesh to encounter the economic and health challenges due to the coronavirus pandemic.
本文主要探讨了孟加拉国在新冠疫情期间面临的经济和健康挑战，以及孟加拉国政府为应对经济和健康问题所采取的政策。就新冠病毒感染总数而言，孟加拉国被列为受影响最严重的国家之一。新冠疫情影响了该国的社会、经济和健康部门，抑制了整体经济福祉，进而影响了国内生产总值增长，同时全国范围内贫困、不平等和失业率飙升。为应对这些危机，政府已启动有效政策措施，这些措施反过来提高了新冠病毒阳性患者的康复率，并加强了经济指标的复苏。因此，本文建议其他受新冠疫情重创的国家效仿孟加拉国的复苏模式，以应对新冠疫情引发的经济和健康挑战。
