Nations have tried their best to protect their citizens from the worst conditions and had also limited the entry of other Nation citizens to enter their Nation so that the spread of the virus could be controlled. Only people who had legitimate reasons to cross the border and who already had vaccination done were allowed to do so. After the pandemic subsidized and was under control only then there was a bit of ease seen in lockdowns.
The companies that were highly dependent on Travel, Tourism, hospitality, and entertainment suffered major losses.
