The COVID19 pandemic needs to be resolved globally before we can ever be safe to once again re-open global aviation because once we do so, we are back to square one unless as I mentioned previously we employ discriminatory border access control , which is unacceptable.

The pandemic is now getting worse in countries that never had much focus until very recently. Russia for instance has now the second most cases 272k in such a quick time and the big concern India has more cases than China now (ok we can't trust China numbers) at 86k cases . And another populous country Indonesia our neighbour has now 17k cases and a high death toll at 1089.
But the biggest hot spot goes to Brazil with 15,000 new cases in a day bringing its total to 218k almost that of Italy (223k) , no surprise given that its President Bolsanaro is another Trump.

The above just highlights that the pandemic is going to remain an issue for the global economy longer than most economists have imputed. The mere fact that emerging and developing countries have started late in their trajectory means that global aviation is not coming back online anytime soon. And that means no tourists and represents a dire outlook for the hospitality industry. Soon, many are not waiting any longer in deciding whether to sustain more loss making months because business normalcy wont return without the tourists and international students especially those operating in the metro CBD areas.
