The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic hit the tourism industry hard in 2020, with emergency measures adopted by many governments massively disrupting international travel. As a result, it was estimated that the United States recorded a tourism revenue loss of roughly 147 billion U.S. dollars between January and October 2020. Meanwhile, Spain reported the second-highest drop in tourism revenue, losing about 46.7 billion U.S. dollars over the period considered.

The source adds the following information "We've taken data from the World Travel and Tourism Council report on the impact COVID-19 has had on the travel industry. Taking the revenue loss, we've looked at which countries have had the biggest travel and tourism loss, and which countries are losing the highest amount of travel and tourism contribution to their GDP from January 2020 - October 2020. GDP data was taken from The World Bank. Data correct as of January 2021".
