ABSTRACT
Covid-19 has reportedly shattered all previous records of outbreaks.
Never a one expected the outbreak, which began in late December
2019, to spread quickly all across the globe, be devastating, and turn
the global business upside-down. SARS, Ebola Virus Disease (EVD),
MERS-CoV, and other diseases brought about modest casualities in a
smaller geographic area, therefore, Covid-19 was predicted to behave
similarly at first. But this was not the case. Humans continuously lost
their lives and faced financial hardships. Undoubtedly, tourism is
amongst the most troubled industries. This research is a review of the
literature. On the basis of facts and figures and prior studies, a
comparison of the effects of prior outbreaks vis-a-vis Covid-19 on
the tourism business has been attempted in this paper. Covid-19 and
previous epidemics are so dissimilar, based on the facts and statistics
gathered, that they can't be compared. Covid-19 has been the most
hazardous viruses to live with owing to its instant spread, geographic
distribution, several individuals who have died as a result of it, and
the negative implications it has had across the region.
