The aviation industry has continued to grow despite the influence of external environmental factors such as SARS and MERS. However, this growth has led to a sharp decrease in air traffic and a crisis of flight suspension due to the collapse of the global value chain and the decline of the world economy as the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the decrease in the number of international flights, aviation workers such as pilots and cabin crew were exposed to high psychological stress and fatigue, such as large-scale layoffs, job instability, decrease in income, and increased risk of infection during. Recently, the international community has eased immigration restrictions through quarantine activities, and airlines are taking a step further to recover existing air demand. However, during the crisis period, a significant number of professional workers have been turned off or fired, and the physical and mental fatigue of those who can perform their duties is increasing. Therefore, this paper intends to examine the direction of policy improvement and the identification of problems in aviation safety and fatigue management after the pandemic.

From several socioeconomic perspectives, the present health crisis can be connected to the 2008 financial and economic catastrophe. Governments worldwide are working hard to keep the markets in check, as evidence suggests that the health crisis may soon become an economic crisis. This paper aims to analyze the effect of COVID-19 on the selected stock market. Using a panel of daily COVID-19 confirmed cases and deaths and the stock market from 22 developing countries, we exploit an oil price as a shock to the stock market and examine the effect of COVID-19 on the slowdown of the stock market. We find a negative and significant impact of COVID-19 on the stock market in the first stage till April. However, there is no net influence on the stock market downturn when we extend the period. However, further study suggests that the outbreak's negative influence on the selected stock market has diminished and has begun to decline as of mid-April. As a result of the COVID-19 effect on the chosen stock, our findings imply that the government in the chosen market should consider a regulatory mechanism to reduce the stock market slowdown induced by the pandemic COVID-19.

2019년 12월 시작된 COVID-19로 전 세계는 코로나바이러스 팬데믹에 국제경제는 위기를 맞았다. 우리나라는 전국민 기본소득 지원, 소상공인 소득지원 등 다양한 방식으로 경기를 부양하기 위한 노력을 기울였지만 여전히 어려움이 컸다. 본 연구는 장기화된 COVID-19가 사회의 기본단위인 가족에게 그리고 각각의 가족구성원들에게 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 살펴보는데 목적을 두고 있다. COVID-19에 따른 가족갈등 및 위기 해결방법은 가족에 대한 집중적 지원, 가구성원들간의 유대 중가를 위한 프로그램 지원, 그리고 평등한 가치관 인식이 가족갈등과 해체를 저지하고 가족의 붕괴를 막을 수 있을 것이라 생각한다.
