According to a forecast published in February 2020, it was estimated that Italy's GDP will decrease due to the impact of coronavirus (COVID-19). According to the estimate, the sectors of textile, train and air transport, hotels, restaurants, shows, and sporting events are expected to record the highest drop. On the other hand, some industries could benefit from the spread of coronavirus in terms of GDP growth. For instance, the gross domestic product could increase up to six percent in the following sectors: food, health, chemicals for house care and personal care, food large-scale distribution, publishing activities, communication, and IT services.
