Bangladesh's Resilience Ranking improved from the 48th position in July to 44th in August and 39th in September due to the downward trend in Covid-19 infections.
Bloomberg scores the world's largest 53 economies based on 12 data indicators that span Covid-19 containment, quality of healthcare, vaccination coverage, overall mortality and – as of last month – progress toward restarting travel and easing border curbs.
Bangladesh achieved an overall score of 59.4 out of 100, in the October's ranking.
Scoring 100 indicates the best performance and 0 indicates the worst.
Like previous month, this month Ireland has been ranked the best Covid resilient country in the world scoring 75.1.
