The COVID-19 pandemic has hit the world hard, costing more than three and half million lives. Governments around the globe are not in a consensus position on the most appropriate response to the pandemic. This study utilizes an economic model to assess choices and compare outcome of public health policies using China as a case study. A lax policy could have costed the country up to 97% of inbound tourism revenue; reduced real gross domestic product by 11% and decreased employment by 15%. Analysis shows that the appropriate prevention and control policy of the Chinese Government have mitigated the impact of COVID-19 significantly for both tourism and non-tourism sectors. Importantly, the article highlights that the substantial negative impact on investment in tourism will slow down the sector’s recovery. The article calls for strong tourism-focused response policies for a speedy recovery.

Until recently, the tourism sector accounted for a significant share of the world's gross domestic product and provided about 10 % of world employment. In 2020, the global tourism industry faced a serious challenge – a crisis caused by the spread of a new type of virus (COVID-19 pandemic). International tourism has become one of the most affected by COVID-19 pandemic industries. The demand for tourism and hospitality services, which were one of the world's largest sources of foreign exchange earnings and employment in the era of pre-COVID-19, has significantly decreased. Although the future of tourism in an era of COVID-19 pandemic is very uncertain, a study of trends in the international tourism market in a crisis can be used to assess how the industry can recover and survive in the era of COVID-19 pandemic.

So, to support the tourism and related sectors of the economy, expanding pandemics and reducing its effects, the authors, first of all, propose to develop an internal tourism and recreation market, create conditions for the formation of a new innovative rehabilitation direction in the recreation complex and psycho-emotional state after coronavirus disease, which is carried out with important consequences. Originality/value.

The article examines the adaptability of the world economy to the global modern challenges. It was revealed that the main trend in the emergence of new challenges in the economy is the rapid spread of globalization processes, which have led to the elimination of many barriers in society. Modern trends make it impossible to perceive global challenges as a negative event that can lead to catastrophic consequences in the world economy. In fact, the emergence of such challenges is usually positive for the further development of the world, since they are the main driving force in contributing to the development of society and the environment that surrounds it. Defined the concept of global risks according to the methodology of the World Economic Forum and made their classification by categories and long-term. Global risks can lead to huge economic losses, which will negatively affect the development of the world economy. The World Economic Forum in its annual reports on global risks defines the concept of such risks – these are events that cause a significant negative impact on national economies and the most important industries of the countries of the world within 2-10 years from the moment of their manifestation. The most critical risks to the world have been found to be the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, the manifestation of extreme weather events, youth frustration, the collapse of social cohesion and climate change. The analysis of the forecast of the growth of the gross domestic product in the world in 2021–2022, which showed that despite the negative growth in 2020, which was caused by the outbreak of the pandemic, in 2021 growth is projected in almost all countries of the world. It has been established that the modern intergovernmental system and international institutions are not capable of ensuring stable growth in the face of crisis phenomena. The development of a mechanism for anti-crisis regulation at the international level is proposed, which should become an effective tool in overcoming the goals that global challenges pose to the world. In addition to international cooperation, it is important to increase the contribution of the scientific and technological community in promoting solutions aimed at the future. Strong interactions between universities, governments, corporations and civil society can be an effective tool in minimizing the impact of future challenges, ensuring better risk management and adaptation.

According to the World Trade Organization, in 2022 the revenue from international tourist travel will be 1.9 billion, which is 4 times higher than in 2015. Statistical indicators of the impact of tourism on the economy of foreign countries demonstrate the importance of developing the tourism industry in the global economy and Ukraine particularly. However, it should be noted that despite the coronavirus pandemic, the global tourism industry by the end of 2020 may be short of $210,000,000,000 in revenues.
