This article is devoted to the main socio-economic consequences of the coronavirus pandemic in the world and in Russia. The new COVID-19 coronavirus infection, which has infected more than 36 million people worldwide since December 2019 (data as of October 20, 2020), not only caused chaos in economics and collapse of social activity (due to widespread quarantine or, as in Russia, voluntary lockdown). It became a catalyst for technological changes that can stay with us for a long time even after the creation of a medicine or vaccine. Robotic dogs on guard of public health are only one of the signs of the new time, which are already visible in various areas of human life. Initially, the article focuses on the economic consequences of a viral infection. Its influence on migration and demographic consequences is considered. Its influence on the subsequent state of health is also traced. The authors analyzed the impact of the coronavirus epidemic on the prospects for labor force development and employment.

Based on empirical data from a sociological study conducted in April and May 2019, the article analyzes the structure of socio-economic and perceived parameters of quality of life. The research was funded by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research. The article using the factor analysis revealed the typological structure of the values of the adult population of Russia. It is shown that it remains predominantly −materialistic‖ (according to R. Inglehart). The most significant is the value of patriotism, and it has a twofold nature - active patriotism and warlike patriotism, each of which expresses a different understanding of love for the motherland. The high importance of family and material wealth remains. The role of −post-materialist‖ values is insignificant. The author defined the state of such parameters of the perceived quality of life as physical activity, the importance of physical issues in restricting life activity, the state of mental health, the significance of emotional issues in restricting life activity, the volume of subjective pain sensations, the general state of health, vitality, and social activity. The nature of their change in the 21st century, from 2002 to 2020, is shown. The nature of the relationship between the state of socio-economic and perceived components of the quality of life is determined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
