  • The economic situation in Poland and in the world. What to Expect After a Pandemic
    We are facing not one but three crises at once. First of all, we are facing a huge epidemiological crisis, the potential scale of which we are not yet able to estimate. We do not even know how many people are currently ill in Poland (we only know how many patients were among those tested for coronavirus). We do not know what number to expect, what will be the further course of the pandemic, when it will peak, or if there will be some calming down after temporary calming (e.g. in the fall). Parallel to the epidemiological crisis, the crisis in the healthcare system continues and develops. Unfortunately, there is evidence that in many countries the system simply collapsed and was unable to provide adequate care to all who need such care. Polish health care is doing somehow so far, but we know how unfinished it is, so we have reasons to be afraid of what will happen in a few weeks.
