i call another psychologist to do a video call or by the phone, because i have found that the time i am having counselling, mainly for my anxiety, it helps me manage with social isolation. ijust woke up, it is the afternoon. i slept last night at three. i can positively say that my friends do the same, everything, every teenager in mumbai does this. i am posting it on social media just for something fun to do. someone down there is watching, we probably look like total wallies. my dad and me, we make food for the underprivileged people

and the people who cannot afford food, we feed 850 people per day. it has been really hard adjusting to this lifestyle of staying at home, but i know it's for everybody's safety and precautions. we usually come here to help. they coronavirus pandemic has really affected businesses. translation: i am with my family the whole day, and that is pretty great because before we did not spend that much time together. so i think being together now is something we should appreciate. i really hope that when i wake up tomorrow, the pandemic is over. the life you thought was growing, this is the life you are hoping to get back to, and hopefully when they coronavirus ends, we will start to look at our world from a different and better angle. the coronavirus pandemic, like september the 11th

and the financial crisis of 2008, has the potential to create shock waves that impact a generation. one group hardest—hit by all three events is millennials, young people born from the early ‘80s to the mid—1990s. lucy hocking spoke to three millennials to see if the pandemic could be one hit too many, and how well—equipped they might be to weather it. not very well—equipped at all, because the story of the past decade since the great financial crisis in 2008 at financial crisis in 2008 and millennials who have gotten a delayed start, especially economically in terms of our ability to pass various milestones like getting established in a career, home ownership, starting to save for retirement, we were just at a point within the past few years where it was possible for us to start catching up in those regards, and now all of a sudden we have this major crisis from out of left field that

is really going to tax us at a time when we not at a time when we weren't resilient enough to take it. what impact has the coronavirus pandemic had on millennials in hong kong? coronavirus has still not reached its peak, we are still to see what kind of economic crisis it will create in hong kong. we are now trying our best to help ourselves, especially to the businesses who have been supporting the last year's anti—extradition bill movement, so we can keep this businesses flowing and we are trying our best to use our consumer power to help small businesses. sarah, do you agree that it could be millennial that end up in millennials that end up being hardest—hit by the pandemic? absolutely, when it comes to the economic impact of the pandemic. millennials were already hard hit during the recession, this is our second

recession as a generation. in the us, we have seen more than half of milennials have already lost their jobs or hours, when it comes to being able to support their families. are there groups within the broader millennial bracket that are more vulnerable than others? of course, when we are looking out, the are looking at the economic impact overall, age stands out but we have to go deeper, about half of the hardest hit are people of colour, so looking at the impact of the pandemic on black millennials, latin millennial is, and we're latin millennials, and we're singing these numbers in of loss ofjobs, even higher, especially for communities that were already struggling. interesting to see how different ethnic groups within the millennial bracket might be affected, but in terms of the age range, do you think there are some millennials who could weather this storm done better than others?

i think it is more a matter that if you look at ages within the millennial generation, every millennial is i going to be affected in different ways. one important fact people tend to lose sight of is that at this point we are older than a lot of people think we are. i was born in 1982, people at my end of the millennial cohort are starting to push a0 within the next few years. we might already be on the property ladder at this point but we probably have a lot less home—equity than our baby boomer parents did at this point in their lives. if the economic well—being of millennials as of millennials is defined by the struggles they have had, how do you rate the resilience of millennials? i feel very grateful to be part of a generation that has led so many incredible movements for social change. when you look at young voters in particular, they care about multiple issues. digging in on the economy, our ability to support our families and communities, but also looking at the treatment of members of our community whether they are immigrants or undocumented, and how our communities are being

treated by the police. or how our planet is being treated right now, and how sustainable our entire planet will be for the future. so young people are incredibly resilient because they always look toward the future that we are trying to build together and that is something that is really important to remember. absolutely, we are concerned about how we support ourselves, we are taking a holistic us to what it means to be part of ourselves, we are taking a holistic view as to what it means to be part of our country but this planet overall, that is when you see young people engaging in so many different issues across the spectrum. we are all hopeful of course that there will be a recovery after this pandemic, so a final question for you. it comes from me, really, as a member of the media, do you... we have to be careful how we measure the recovery, it might be seen differently in the eyes of a millennial. yes, a big problem we have had in the past decade is the politicians and the media trying

to measure recovery in terms of head lice statistics and the media trying to measure recovery in terms of statistics like gdp growth or that the unemployed rate was going down. that misses the fact that millennial is that millennials in particular as young entrants in the labour market after the last recession had been hit in ways that can really lingerfor a long time. we have a lot of evidence now if you enter the labour market during a recession, your lifetime earnings are likely to take a hit, it will take a long time for your annual earnings to recover to the level that they might have been at if you had entered the labour market during an economic boom. millennials there on how the pandemic has impacted their generation. for many, the transition out of lockdown carries a new set of challenges. we head now to italy to hear how one grandmother has adjusted to her new life after spending months in isolation.

that is it for now. a reminder, you can follow me on twitter. i'm @annita—mcveigh. or head to the bbc news website for the latest information. thank you for watching.
