How has covid 19 impacted the poverty line

Your paper assignment is based on the research you have performed throughout the semester and presented in front of class. As such it should entail a thoughtful discussion of research design, theory-building, hypotheses, data and case selection, analysis, and concluding remarks that indicate the significance of your findings.

Expectations:
1. At least one independent source of data you use to test your hypotheses.
2. At least one Table or Figure of your own making in the text.
3. At least four peer-reviewed articles included in works cited (you can use google scholar to find these).
4. It is a good idea to have a one or two sentence thesis statement at or near the end of your introductory paragraph.
5. State your hypothesis explicitly, and show that they follow from your theory.
6. Include an abstract summarizing your argument and findings on your title page (~100-150 words).
7. 8-10 pages (not including title page and works cited), double spaced, 1-inch margins using a conventional font (e.g. Times New Roman, not ‘Courier New’).

Life for those on the poverty line has been in even more turmoil as they are faced with the unprecedented hardships of a global pandemic.The COVID-19 outbreak has caused a substantial impact on our economy, resulting in significant health and financial issues that led to the loss of many lives and employment worldwide. Our fundamental needs became extremely scarce as businesses lost work, food and gas prices rose, and new protocols came into effect.

Economic recessions spike a rise in poverty. So, as the crisis grew extreme poverty began to rapidly increase. The pandemic took a massive toll on the lives of our people, but those on the poverty line were the ones who were affected the most.
