The coronavirus is already holding back the development of the future 5G network
5G technology is designed to accelerate the development of our civilization by enabling the exchange of much more data between all kinds of devices. Unfortunately, coronavirus interferes greatly with this.
The Chinese authorities said that as a result of the epidemic, six strategic tenders were suspended, which concern the construction of fifth generation network infrastructure on the country's territory. The quarantine covered areas where key factories and headquarters of two leading manufacturers of optical fibers and components for 5G network construction are located.
The problems are not only for China itself. As many components for building a new generation network are produced and exported worldwide, delays should also occur in Europe. The construction of the 5G network is also important for the SARS-CoV-2 epidemic itself. This technology allows you to create information centers and very quickly exchange valuable information about the situation and action plans.
Importantly, the 5G network enables fast connectivity and communication of intelligent devices. Mobile equipment, robots, drones and all kinds of gadgets can help government organizations and services to more effectively control and assist people. The government also wanted to use new technology advances to deal with the economic problems later on that coronavirus would provide.
If China's problems continue to worsen, and in Europe the virus begins to spread on such a scale as in Asia, we can expect a similar situation. Telecommunications analysts do not hide that economic development in many countries will be out of breath, and this in turn will mean social problems.
Yes, unfortunately every single day we ready thousands of news about this virus and it’s normal to get worried. As it affects our daily life, sure it’s making a big problem for business people as well. Many trade shows have been cancelled. One of them was the world’s biggest phone show MWC 2020. Hopefully people will stop dying and affected because of any virus like COVID-19. Sure, it’s very sad that thousands of people already have been affected by this terrible virus which is coming from China to all over the world.
