Like many countries, the United Kingdom has been hit severely by the COVID-19 outbreak. A strict lockdown was essential to contain the pandemic but halted activity in many key sectors.

On-going measures to prevent a second wave of infections will need to be carefully calibrated to manage the economic impact.
