Effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Gauteng City-Region
Results from QoL 2020/21 survey highlight the substantial and profound impact that COVID-19 has had on overall quality of life, health and well-being of residents in the GCR (de Kadt et al., 2021). Using QoL 2020/21 data, this Data Brief examines in more detail the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on households, society, the economy and governance. The fieldwork was conducted between October 2020 and May 2021, covering the second wave of COVID-19 infections but excluding the third wave. The data brief provides insight into the effects of the pandemic from March 2020 to May 2021.
