The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has imposed numerous constraints, caused enormous disruptions and been associated with more than 5.8 million deaths worldwide (at time writing). It also raised opportunities to imagine a new environment. Accounting academics have involved in studying thinking about questions this poses for research practice. scholars explored responses crisis provided important insights its impact. However, there is relatively little into how accounting scholarship contributed collectively understanding challenging effect crisis. As had grow, seems an opportune offer preliminary assessment early indication emergent themes challenges. This paper aims bring together reconcile from understandably fragmented literature propose agenda future research. provides conceptual consolidation published by establishing connections identifying key challenges opportunities. Building on systematic review publication patterns across 53 academic journals, analyses as investigated researchers identify gaps.

Abstract The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to determine the effect lockdowns on COVID-19 mortality based available empirical evidence. Lockdowns are defined as imposition at least one compulsory, non-pharmaceutical intervention (NPI). We employ a search screening procedure in which 19,646 studies identified that could potentially address our study. After three levels screening, 32 qualified. Of those, estimates from 22 be converted standardized measures for inclusion meta-analysis.

The overall combined large reductions in ‘within-firm’ productivity, with offsetting positive ‘between-firm’ effects as less productive sectors, firms within them, contracted. Despite these pandemic effects, firms’ post-Covid forecasts imply surprisingly little lasting aggregate TFP. also see significant heterogeneity over greatest those requiring extensive in-person activity.

The spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19 depends on complex fluid dynamics interactions between pathogens and phases, including individual droplets multiphase clouds. Understanding these is crucial for predicting controlling disease spread. This applies to human animal exhalations, coughs sneezes, well bursting bubbles that create micron-sized in various indoor outdoor environments. By exploring case studies this regard, study examines the emerging field transmission, focusing flows, interfacial turbulence, pathogens, traffic, aerosol ventilation, breathing microenvironments. These results indicate increased ventilation rates local methods can effectively reduce concentration SARS-CoV-2-laden aerosols immediate spaces individuals. In a displacement-ventilated room, both neutral unstable conditions were more effective removing breathed from air, regardless presence test subjects. However, stable may increase risk infection individuals living confined spaces. Thus, findings are useful providing practical guidance managing airborne infections.
