Summary
The outbreak of COVID-19 comes with unpredictable primary and secondary impacts on vulnerable and
food-insecure populations across the world. Mortality and morbidity appear to be most acute for
elderly people, and those with underlying health conditions. At the same time, the widely anticipated
economic downturn could have a more devastating effect on the world’s poor than the virus itself.
