“Pandemic” refers to a fatal communicable disease which causes “hierarchy of deaths” and severe economic detriment over a wide range of areas across the boundaries over a long period of time.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), “A pandemic is an epidemic of worldwide proportions; a global disease outbreak. It is determined by how the disease spreads, not how many deaths it causes”. 

This world has been facing several pandemics since its birth. Research shows that the world has experienced a pandemic in every 100 years. More or less, every pandemic has its own level of destruction. This level is somewhat contingent on the frequency of pandemic. So, whether the economy is in a V-shape or W-shape recession during the pandemic is to be decided by the waves of it.

নিলাম তো আমরা সবাই দেখেছি। একজন বাচাল নিলাম-ডাকিয়ে উঁচু মঞ্চে দাঁড়িয়ে নিলাম ডাকেন, আর হলভর্তি মানুষ দাম করেন। এমন নিলাম নানা জিনিস নিয়ে হয়। অনেকে তো আবার একে মজা করে ডাকেন- সুন্দরী প্রতিযোগিতা!
নেদারল্যান্ডসের আলসমিইর ফ্লাওয়ার অকশন যেটি কিনা পৃথিবীর সবচেয়ে বড় ফুলের নিলাম। এই নিলামের দালানটি পৃথিবীর চতুর্থ বৃহৎ দালান যেখানে নিলাম হয় । এখানে পৃথিবীর সকল প্রান্ত থেকে ফুল আসে। এখানে ৩০ বার এদের মান মূল্যায়ন করা হয় । প্রতিদিন প্রায় দুইকোটি ফুল বিক্রি হয় এবং ভালোবাসা দিবস বা মা দিবসের মত বিশেষ দিনে ১৫% ছাড় দেয়া হয়।

Typically, I'm genuinely positive about the books I audit, yet here's one I truly disagreed with.
Why have a few nations flourished and made incredible day to day environments for their  residents, while others have not? This is a subject I care very much about, so as of late I was anxious to get a book on precisely this point. 
​

Why Nations Fail: The Origins of Power, Prosperity, and Poverty is easy to read but difficult  to peruse, with bunches of fascinating verifiable tales about various nations. It makes a contention  that is urgently basic: nations with "inclusive" (as opposed to "extractive") political and monetary  establishments are the ones that succeed and make due over the long haul.
