COVID-19 changed our world: A systematic review
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic profoundly reshaped political, religious, economic, social, and financial institutions across the globe. More than 80 countries imposed border closures, shut down business activities, and advised citizens to self-quarantine. The pandemic also caused schools to close indefinitely, affecting approximately 1.5 billion children worldwide. This study sought to integrate the diverse effects of COVID-19 on varied human interests and offer a comprehensive overview of the effects of the pandemic. A systematic literature review encompassing the period between February 2019 and December 2022 was conducted using Web of Science, PubMed, and Google Scholar. The search included keywords related to the impact of COVID-19 on health, education, economics, and the environment, and articles were selected based on pre-defined inclusion criteria. The literature review was limited by its specific time frame, potential publication bias, and language restrictions. Nevertheless, the study findings highlight critical areas for prospective policy interventions and recommend that future research endeavors should address the diverse effects of the pandemic across varied sectors. This literature review revealed that COVID-19 exerted far-reaching consequences beyond health, impacting mental and emotional well-being, education, financial and economic stability, social dynamics, business operations, travel and tourism, and the environment. The pandemic introduced a profoundly challenging period of human history, revealing itself as more than just a health crisis: it signified a significant threat to multiple facets of global life. Despite the successful rollout of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 vaccine, an ongoing public debate persists regarding whether COVID-19 will reemerge or eventually wane.
