Abstract

The chapter delves into the profound economic and fiscal impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on South Africa, focusing on how the pandemic has exacerbated existing fiscal challenges and hindered progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals. It discusses the immediate and long-term effects on GDP, unemployment, tax revenues, and national debt, and offers policy recommendations to address these issues and promote economic recovery. The analysis is based on empirical data and a thorough literature review, providing a nuanced understanding of the pandemic's multifaceted consequences and the necessary steps for South Africa to achieve its development goals.
