The overall growth rate of tourism revenue decreased by 28%, and domestic famous scenic spots such as Huangshan, Taishan and Emei Mountain were also greatly affected by the epidemic, and the passenger flow decreased. In 2002, the passenger flow increased by more than 50%. In contrast, it can be seen that the SARS epidemic has a great impact on tourism. In addition to the reduction of domestic tourists, outbound travel has also been seriously affected.
In 2002, the monthly number of inbound tourists in Chinese mainland was between 8 million and 9 million. During the peak period of SARS from March to June in 2003, the number of inbound tourists dropped sharply to 5 million to 9 million per month. Although the SARS epidemic was basically eliminated in July 2003, it was not until mid-August that the inbound passengers gradually returned to normal. At present, domestic tourists are preventing and controlling pneumonia virus in China, while foreign tourists are basically stagnant. It can be seen that after the epidemic is eliminated.
By February 4, 2020 1 1, there were 63,932 confirmed cases, 65,438 suspected cases +00 109 cases, and 65,438 cumulative deaths +038 1 case, with a mortality rate of about 2.65438+.
Compared with SARS, the mortality rate of this pneumonia epidemic is much lower than that of SARS, but the confirmed cases are much higher than that of SARS. It can be seen that the epidemic situation of pneumonia is more severe. The overlapping closure of cities and roads and the delay in the start of enterprises have a great impact on the national economy. Tourism is an industry sensitive to the environment. In this case, the impact this time should be far greater than the impact of the SARS epidemic.
