Abstract

The aim of this study is to clarify the repercussions of the Covid 19 virus on the global
economy, its socioeconomic impacts on Algeria, and the efforts made by the government to
mitigate it.
To assess the quantitative impact of this crisis, the reports of international organizations
and official Algerian bodies were relied upon.

We found that the health crisis was followed by an economic crisis, as global growth rates,
international trade and tourism decreased, and the stock and bond markets retreated.
Macroeconomic indicators also declined in Algeria.
We tried to suggest other measures in addition to the actions adopted by the government
and to provide a forward-looking vision for the post-Covid 19.
