The first confirmed case of coronavirus infection was recorded on March 11, 2020. As of March 18, 2020, there are 191 officially confirmed cases of the infection. Unfortunately, 2 affected people have died. By the time this issue is published the number of people having the disease will probably have grown.

Let’s talk shortly about the main measures to fight the virus. After that I will tell you about the current situation in tourism and the Turkish economy and about the emergency economic support package announced by the state on March 18 of this year.

For protection from coronavirus that could be brought from abroad Turkey closed the land borders with Iran, Greece, and Bulgaria.

Also, air travel to and from China, Iran, Iraq, Italy, South Korea, Germany, France, Spain, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Bulgaria, the Netherlands, Azerbaijan, and Georgia was cut off.

In Turkey all kindergartens, schools and colleges, places of mass gathering like theaters, cinemas, public bodies, cafes, night clubs were closed. There were issued recommendations on closing down shopping malls.

In short, all the country switched to isolation-at-home mode. The news constantly report the situation and explain how to protect oneself and one’s family from the virus.

Italy’s example is right there before everyone’s eyes. All people see just how quickly the virus spreads across the globe and especially in Europe. So, Turkey doesn’t want to pretend that nothing is happening.

There are much less people in the streets and in the public transport vehicles. All who have the opportunity prefer to stay at home with their families.

Of course, people bought up food and basic products but there are no panics or long lines in the shops. All is available except for the medical face masks and Turkish eau de cologne used for disinfection.

By the way, in Turkey N95 medical masks which provide better protection are now being sold with prescription only. This is done to stop speculation in the market.

So, how has all of that influenced the Turkish economy?

People and the tourism industry are frightened. Numerous hotels, especially those working with European clients, are being closed, no one knows for sure how long this situation will last and hence no one can make any forecasts.

It’s apparent that if the situation with the virus in Turkey and all over the world is resolved quickly, i.e. before the high season starts in June, the tourism sector will recover. However, if the situation continues further, it will be a tough time for the tourism industry and the Turkish economy. This applies to all the world, though.

In order to support the economy on March 18, 2020 the Turkish government approved a state support package worth 100 bln Turkish liras.
