Health protection gaps after the pandemic : an upward path? / Irina Fan. — Zurich : Swiss Re Institute, 2020

Sumario: If history is a guide, global health resilience is likely to deteriorate following the COVID-19-driven recession. The pandemic is pushing households into financial stress, particularly in emerging markets. This is expected to widen the global health protection gap to well above the record-high USD 588 billion in 2019. Stronger health insurance can help to alleviate this stress and increase societal resilience to future crises.
