Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a contagious disease caused by the virus severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The first known case was identified in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. The disease quickly spread worldwide, resulting in the COVID-19 pandemic. The symptoms of COVID 19 are variable but often include fever, cough, headache, fatigue, breathing difficulties, loss of smell, and loss of taste. Symptoms may begin one to fourteen days after exposure to the virus. At least a third of people who are infected do not develop noticeable symptoms. Of those who develop symptoms noticeable enough to be classified as patients, most (81%) develop mild to moderate symptoms (up to mild pneumonia), while 14% develop severe symptoms (dyspnea, hypoxia, or more than 50% lung involvement on imaging), and 5% develop critical symptoms (respiratory failure, shock, or multiorgan dysfunction). As the world is facing an unprecedented global health, social and economic emergency with the COVID-19 pandemic, travel and tourism is among the most affected sectors with airplanes on the ground, hotels closed and travel restrictions put in place in virtually all countries around the world. Therefore, the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) has launched a new dashboard on COVID-19 and tourism which shows data on the impact of COVID-19 on the tourism sector across the world, by regions and by destinations. Himachal Pradesh witnessed the arrival of 1.28 crore tourists, including 28,232 foreigners, between 1 January 1 and 31 October, says data procured from the Tourism department. The hill state witnessed the footfall of 41.03 lakh tourists in the corresponding year-ago period, showed the data, adding that the tourism and allied industry suffered huge losses as tourist inflow dropped 81 per cent year-on-year in 2020 during the pandemic. In 2020, the tourist arrivals plunged to 32.13 lakh from 1.72 crore in 2019, but marginally recovered to 56.37 lakh in 2021.In 2022, the maximum number of tourists 20.63 lakh visited in June, while January recorded the lowest footfall at 7.69 lakh according to the data.
