Interestingly, the report says that the global happiness index was remarkably resilient for the pandemic years, between 2020 and 2022 as compared to the three years preceding the pandemic’. This means that the pandemic did not have much impact on the happiness index of people. Analysts, however, maintain that this could be true in the case of a few developed countries; but for a large number of least developed and developing countries, the pandemic was a big jolt on their material well-being. The average, they maintain, may not reflect reality.
