INTRODUCTION
The COVID-19 pandemic have showed us, how vulnerabilities in immune systems can
have profound its implications on health, economic growth, trust in authorities, and social
connection. This report will discuss the key highlight about the impact of COVID on world
especially on UK. To support the report the proper data is attached of statistics to show the
impact of COVID on UK (St. Peter and et.al, 2021). In addition the impact of COVID-19 on

TASK 1
The Impact of Covid-19 in UK and on its Healthcare:
More than a year and a half into the Covid-19 pandemic, World have yet to see new
cases, hospitalizations, deaths, and encouraging numbers of people vaccinated in 2021. Familiar
with daily data. Each of the UK's health services faced many similar challenges over this period,
but the UK report obscures the differences between the ups and downs of the different countries.
This reflects, among other things, the spread of this Covid-19 over time and the impact of new
virus strains and lockdown rules(Usman, M.K., 2021). This statement takes a closer look at the
UK's pandemic so far. This includes some of the differences between countries. It also details the
challenges and impacts common to UK healthcare services in the particular time.
In first wave of COVID-19, from March to May 2020, restricted testing happened,
particularly not in hospital, so numbers of cases confirmed immensely underestimated the actual
cases of infections. Also Covid-19 deaths and admits to hospitalizations were as well under-
reported. A second wave, from October 2020 to February 2021, saw an increase in cases in UK
in the fall season, but was under control by a series of lockdown measures which were
introduced from late September. In the UK, infection rates rapidly increase from October and
kept increasing during lockdown in November, but as the 'Kent' variant of COVID (later known
as Alpha) took place and got highest in January. then fell down rapidly. The second wave was a
huge firebreak. By the third wave, since July till May 2022. There was again been huge spread
all over the UK, causes by the more contagious Delta variant, which was last dominant variant in
the UK. In way third deaths were less because almost everyone got there first jabs of vaccines. In

this ways most of them were likely to indicate the high-quality of immunity because of
vaccination and previous infection rates. Vaccination program was started in December'21 for
frontline warriors. Although the first two waves were controlled due to lockdowns, but the third
wave have been by reduce in control measurement, though at not same speeds across the UK.
The corporate and household factors that effected in high cases of COVID in the first and second
waves are less apparent in this pandemic wave.
For better understanding line chart of death cases is attached below;
Comparison COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths during the pandemic (see graph
above), COVID-19 mortality rates were high from November to March, with all four countries It
is clear that wave second had the highest mortality rate. The death toll peaked on 19 January,
when it got highest deaths from his Covid across the UK. The number of hospitalized Covid
patients was high for many months from November to February. As of January, there were
39,254 Covid patients hospitalized, accounting for around 30% of UK NHS hospital beds
(Verma, Lamsal and Verma, 2022).
The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on the demand of healthcare and supply of the
same. The health needs changed, like there were less requirements of medication of infectious
disease during the pandemic, and people’s medical requirement seeking behaviour, have
impacted the need for health services and had contributed to decrease in activity. Moreover,
health system accommodate to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 on staff and patients, and
increased levels of staff deficiency due to COVID-19, on the supply-side factors which have
effected the delivery of healthcare.

Impact of COVID-19 on the economy in the UK
Although Covid was largely a human crisis, it had severe impact on the economy of UK.
From March 2020 to July 2021 government took restrictive measures, including three nationwide
lockdowns. This resulted in a GDP fall of 9.3% in the year 2020. This is the largest hit an
economy has suffered post the World War I. This happened due to the restrictions imposed due
to Covid and the economic policies implemented by the government to support businesses. The
government also had to borrow 330 billion pounds to support the economy. Usually a 10% hit to
an economy can lead to unemployment levels of 9% to 12%. However, the UK unemployment
peaked at 5.2 %. This is because, Covid was different to any other crisis. Covid required the
temporary shutdown of parts of economy. Usually in a crisis, you are trying to stimulate
economic activity. However, during Covid, government had to take measures to suppress
activity. Social consumption was not dead; it was put to halt during the pandemic(Vyas-
Doorgapersad, 2022).

Impact of COVID-19 on social life:
The recent Covid-19 pandemic has had a significant psychological and social impact on
people. The study looks at the effects on mental health of the most exposed groups, such as
children, students and health care workers, who are more likely to develop post-traumatic stress
disorder, anxiety, depression and other symptoms of distress(Wu, Zhou and Chen, 2022).
Emphasis: Social distancing and safety measures are impacting relationships between people and
their perception of empathy for others. From this perspective, telepsychology and technology
devices have played an important role in mitigating the negative effects of the pandemic.
CONCLUSION
As per this report, the finding and data shows that COVID is lasting pandemic and the
restriction to control this virus in last few years impacted the economy, healthcare and social life
in negative way. The outburst of COVID-19 and the national wide lockdowns at various stages
had clear patterns and measures, and their effects on labour income and time use well-being
differ.
