The end of 2019 will be remembered for the discovery of the new coronavirus infection COVID-19, which has become a major challenge for all of humanity. The ongoing pandemic has provoked a crisis in all spheres of life and is continuously changing the global economic, political, social and other processes, forcing us to adapt to the introduced precautions. Using a logical and systematic approach to research, applying methods of synthesis and content analysis of the press, electronic media and communication, as well as scientific articles, the authors analyzed the impact of the COVID-19 coronavirus infection pandemic on the economic state of the Kaluga Region. The main socio-economic indicators are considered in dynamics and the most important spheres of the region's economy are analyzed in more detail. Assumptions have been made about how the restrictive measures designed to reduce the growth of cases affected the life-supporting processes of the region. The migration processes of the population were considered, and the change in the standard of living was assessed. How the coronavirus has affected the health sector is reflected. It has been analyzed whether the forecast of industrial production can be realized taking into account the current conditions. Taking into account the fact that a cluster model of development is being implemented in the region, the current indicators of the two leading directions: pharmaceutical and automotive, and their possibilities for the restoration of the regional economy with their help are reviewed. It was revealed that in the local Kaluga production of a large international pharmaceutical company, it is possible to implement part of the research to create a vaccine against coronavirus infection COVID-19. Based on the data processed in this article, it can be concluded that the diversification of the regional economy, which the regional administration adheres to, is bearing fruit in the current force majeure conditions. And the clustering of industry and preferential terms of permission for investors in such times have become especially relevant.

Introduction: the article provides an overview of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) on treaty and enforcement practices. The most common methods of conclusion of civil-law contracts, as well as problems of fulfillment of contractual conditions, which arose against the background of spread of coronavirus infection, are considered. Legislative innovations were analysed, which led to a change in the procedure for the execution of certain types of civil law contracts, court practice, in which the legal position of the parties was based on arguments about the coronavirus pandemic. Methods: this study used both public science (dialectical method of cognition, analysis, synthesis, formal-logical method, prognostic, etc.) and private science methods (formal-legal, method of legal interpretation, etc.). Results: it is justified to increase the demand for digital technologies in the context of measures taken by the state to prevent the spread of coronavirus infection. New trends in contract practice have been identified and considered. The possibilities of legal qualification of coronavirus as a force majeure, the circumstance that makes it impossible to fulfill obligations, a significant change of circumstances, including taking into account the available judicial practice at the time of writing, have been determined. Online settlement of disputes arising from non-performance of contractual obligations has been proved to be useful. Conclusions: based on the results of the study, the interdependence between the level of introduction of digital technologies into public administration, the judicial system, the economic activity of business entities and the possibility of adaptation to the conduct of current activities in these spheres in the context of the spread of the crown virus has been determined.

The development of the situation around Covid-19 is an urgent problem for the whole world, and it is still not known exactly how the pandemic will develop. However, based on the data of the virus spread to date, it is possible to model the approximate outcome of the activities of humanity in the fight against Covid-19. To develop this model, we used a simulation tool-AnyLogic (Personal Learning Edition) with support for the Java programming language. This software has a large analytical functionality. When creating the Covid-19 infection model, the free version of the program was used. This model is only relevant if the pandemic continues at the same pace. There are many factors that can deviate from the presented model in any direction: early release from restrictive measures, virus mutations, forced vaccination of the population, and other measures that directly affect the main indicators of infection development. In the process of modelling the spread of Covid-19 coronavirus infection in the Kaluga region, results were obtained that reflect the rate of development of the pandemic. Thus, it is possible to identify the weaknesses of the fight against viruses and further minimize the rate of development of the disease.

Currently, in various world regions, the prevalence of depressive and anxiety disorders due to the impact of coronavirus infection is repeatedly increased compared to that in previous years. Among the predictors of their development during the pandemic, there are COVID-19 symptoms, a history of mental disorders, as well as restrictive measures, and financial losses.The paper describes three clinical cases of depressive disorders during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the depiction of the anamnesis, somatic and mental status, the patholopsychogical qualification of the condition, and the justification of a therapy regimen. The multifactorial stressor effect of the COVID-19 pandemic has provoked an exacerbation of depression in a male patient with a history of affective disorder; the development of a nosogenic depressive reaction of demoralization in a female patient with coronavirus pneumonia; the worsening of somatization dysthymia in a female patient of involutional age. The timely recognition of depression and its treatment with currently available antidepressants have contributed to the achievement of high-quality remission, the increase of stress resistance, and the improvement of quality of life in the patients.

The article is devoted to the assessment of changes in the budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation that are part of the Ural Federal District, which they have undergone in connection with the change in the macroeconomic situation in the country and regions. The article provides an overview of scientific research on the topic under consideration. On the basis of open official data, using general scientific methods, the influence of the introduced restrictive measures related to the fight against the spread of coronavirus infection on the regional budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation of the Ural Federal District is shown. The analysis is carried out in the context of the structure of sources of formation of budget revenues, as well as in the areas of spending financial resources of the regions of the Ural Federal District, an assessment of the balance of the studied budgets is given. Comparative analysis was carried out for the first half of 2019 and 2020. The results obtained indicate that in the revenue part of the studied budgets of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, tax revenues from profits and incomes have significantly decreased. All the regional budgets under consideration show an increase in gratuitous receipts. In the expenditure part of the budgets, the increase is mainly noted in the sections "Healthcare" and "Social policy". Thus, measures of state support in the first half of 2020 made it possible to maintain a budget surplus in four of the six subjects of the Russian Federation of the Ural Federal District. However, the current situation with the spread of coronavirus infection does not allow making optimistic forecasts for the further filling of the revenues of regional budgets. The situation is similar with the expenditure side – they will increase due to the growth of social expenditures, which will affect the balance of regional budgets.

Currently, the need to develop measures to prevent the negative economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic is primary for most countries in the world. Determining the ways of possible impact on the physical and informational form of the spread of a new coronavirus infection seems to be especially relevant in the context of a global problem. The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of the physical and informational forms of the spread of coronavirus infection on the set of indicators characterizing the labor market, e.g. the unemployment rate, average wages in different types of economic activity, employer's need for the labour force; to identify the logic of behaviorof the Russian society by studying the dynamics of search queries in January--August 2020; to identify possible ways to minimize negative economic effects caused by the coronavirus pandemic. As a result of the study carried out within the labor market, a fundamentally new property of the pandemic was revealed --- the "effect of delaying physical consequences", the multidirectional influence of the physical and informational forms of the coronavirus spread on a number of indicators characterizing the labor market was established. The rapid adaptation of the Russian society to remote employment in lockdown and severe restrictive measures has been confirmed

At the end of 2019, a new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) was discovered in China, causing the coronavirus infection COVID-19. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic poses a major challenge to health systems around the world. There is still little information on how infection affects liver function and the significance of pre-existing liver disease as a risk factor for infection and severe COVID-19. In addition, some drugs used to treat the new coronavirus infection are hepatotoxic. In this article, we analyze data on the impact of COVID-19 on liver function, as well as on the course and outcome of COVID-19 in patients with liver disease, including hepatocellular carcinoma, or those on immunosuppressive therapy after liver transplantation.

Big international development donors such as the UK’s Department for International Development and USAID have recently started using systematic review as a methodology to assess the effectiveness of various development interventions to help them decide what is the ‘best’ intervention to spend money on. Such an approach to evidence-based decision-making has long been practiced in the health sector in the US, UK, and elsewhere but it is relatively new in the development field. In this article we use the case of a systematic review of the impact of microfinance on the poor in sub-Saharan African to indicate how systematic review as a methodology can be used to assess the impact of specific development interventions.
