The twin health and economic crisis induced by COVID-19 presents unique challenges to the West and Central Africa Region (WCAR). First, while the global financial crisis was demand driven, the COVID-19 economic crisis is simultaneously driven by both demand and supply shocks. Second, the process of recovery is linked with uncertainty about when the health crisis will end, due to the emergence of various strains of the virus and vaccine roll-out.
