Europe COVID-19 Tracker Free to View Economics - Europe 23 June 2021 Europe COVID-19 tracker Free to View Economics - Europe Falling cases, rising prices While headline case numbers are still falling on the continent, the Chris Hare Senior Economist Delta variant is on the rise… HSBC Bank plc …which could risk reopening delays but is unlikely to scupper the recovery, given vaccines and business confidence Supply-demand imbalances could be lifting inflation but, in the eurozone at least, most pressures should prove temporary Delta dominance COVID-19 case numbers continue to fall across most of the continent (Chart 1), as does intensive care occupancy (Chart 2), while the vaccine rollout continues at a rapid pace (Chart 3). And countries are continuing along their reopening roadmaps. In Germany, case levels are now low enough to allow for the resumption of indoor restaurant dining, nightclubs in Catalonia reopened on 21 June (albeit with a 3.30am curfew) and from 28 June, outdoor mask wearing will no longer be required in Italy. There are rising concerns, however, about the spread of the Delta variant. It may now account for almost all new cases in the UK and Portugal and around a quarter in Italy (Chart 5). The European Centre for Disease Control has estimated that the variant will account for 90% of European cases by the end of August (AFP, 23 June). The big question is whether this risks plans for further reopening. The UK, where cases are rising sharply, is a litmus test. While hospitalisations remain low (Chart 7), the spread of the variant was enough to delay a further easing from 21 June to 19 July in England. The vaccine rollout in the Big 4 is less advanced than when the Delta variant became dominant in the UK (Chart 9), so reopening delays could follow elsewhere. Another concern is that vaccine programmes may be running into pockets of hesitancy – reports from France suggest that appointments are getting harder to fill (LCI, 23 June), while take-up among some ethnic minority groups in the UK is low (Chart 10). Supply-demand imbalances = higher inflation? The Delta variant does not, however, appear to be concerning businesses. The eurozone PMI hit a 15-year high in June, while the UK index only edged down slightly (Chart 16). So any short reopening delays may not scupper the recovery. Perhaps the most striking developments in the June PMIs relate to prices. The output price indices rose to record highs in the eurozone and in the UK, although not to even higher US levels (Chart 17). We think much of this is a result of temporary supply-demand imbalances where a spending recovery is running up against a supply side which is constrained by input shortages and capacity limits. However, labour demand also looks strong, which might point to more persistent price pressures (Chart 19). These developments are consistent with recent upgrades we have made to our inflation forecasts (Chart 21). Last week, we revised up our 2022 inflation forecast for the UK and the eurozone by 0.2ppts to 2.2% and 1.5%, respectively. However, particularly in the eurozone, we still think most of the price pressures highlighted in the surveys will prove temporary, keeping medium-term inflation well below the ECB’s ‘below, but close to’ 2% inflation aim.

The details needed for the endgame is where most ideas, policies and programs fail. Getting things done is central to this story because to achieve the systemic change necessary to eliminate the causes of worker abuse, the program had to work; its success measured by metrics of real and enduring change in the fields." - Susan Marquis Dean of the Pardee RAND Graduate School, on the Fair Food Program1 2 Photo: Shane Donglasan 3 About FFSC Program Partners Participating Buyers Mission The mission of the Fair Food Standards Council (FFSC) is to monitor the development of a sustainable agricultural industry that advances the human rights of farmworkers, the long-term interests of growers, and the ethical supply chain concerns of retail food companies through implementation of the Fair Food Program.

    LAUNCH June 28 Baseline Report 2011 i Acknowledgements This report is the result of the collective efforts of many individuals who have worked diligently and in sometimes very arduous physical conditions to collect data in some of the most remote physical areas of Liberia. TANGO International wishes to thank the efforts of both the members of the survey field team and senior personnel at ACDI/VOCA and PCI headquarters in Monrovia for making the collaborative team experience a very hospitable and positive one. While it is not possible to exhaustively identify every individual involved, the team is grateful to a number of senior members of ACDI/VOCA and PCI including: LAUNCH Chief of Party Ahamadou Ndiade, M&E Director George Forpoh, M&E Assistants John Sando and Tenneh Johnson, Country Coordinators Gabriel Coleman and Philip Zoryu, and Country Representative for PCI Frederick Henning. Maria Bina Palmisano, senior Monitoring and Evaluation Director from ACDI/VOCA in Washington has been extremely helpful and supportive of the field mission since the outset. Deanne Samuels from PCI in San Diego also provided very valuable insights and guidance to the field team in preparation for the field survey. Many government officials in the sectors of education, health, and agriculture in Bong and Nimba Counties provided their undivided attention in meeting with survey team members and providing very useful information needed for this report. Dr. James Kormon, CEO of African Development Associates, and his reliable team of enumerators, staff, and drivers worked endless hours under very difficult conditions to assure that the field survey was carried out effectively.

  • Europe COVID-19 Tracker Free to View Economics - Europe
    25 August 2021 Europe COVID-19 tracker Free to View Economics - Europe Past peak growth; tourism returns Infection rates and ICU occupancies remain broadly stable Fabio Balboni Senior Economist Data are pointing to slowing growth momentum... HSBC Bank plc ...but the tourism season is finally showing signs of revival Slight up-tick in cases The number of cases are still broadly stable across Europe, although they are rising more rapidly in Germany and the UK, and intensive care unit occupancy rates for COVID-19 patients remain relatively contained. Most European countries are getting closer to the vaccination target of 70% of the population, which they had set out to meet by the end of the summer. Meanwhile, the debate is continuing on early signs of waning immunity from vaccines and the efficacy of vaccines in preventing transmission (FT, 19 August). Data from Israel are worrying in terms of possible waning protection (Chart 9-10). The French Health Minister said citizens over-65 are likely to be offered a booster shot starting in September (Anadolu, 23 August). UK Health Minister Sajid Javid said in early August that a booster campaign for over-50s would kick off in early September (even though the press is reporting that boosters may be limited to most vulnerable; Telegraph, 19 August). Past peak growth The August PMIs indicated that the pace of service sector expansion eased slightly, both in the eurozone and the UK. The manufacturing PMIs also dipped again, even though there are some early signs of alleviating supply-side bottlenecks (Chart 18). The ifo survey in Germany gave a more concerning signal, with expectations surprising significantly to the downside and pointing to fading growth momentum, possibly also related to the slowdown in Asia.
