Opportunity 1: "In Italy, hospitals overflow with the dead"
Hospitals are overflowing
with patients with the corona virus, an outcome that is likely to happen in the
US if measures are not taken. With hospitals being packed with patients, people
will need direction on where to be treated. In preparation for the situation to
get worse in the states, I believe there is an opportunity to turn companies
that are in shutdown period into quarantine centers. The virus may shift the nation’s
economy into a state of shutdown, where buildings will become vacant. Those buildings
may become an opportunity to treat patients. This opportunity is relatively difficult
to exploit, considering companies would not like the chance of lingering germs
(the virus) to spread in the company.
Opportunity 2: "How the coronavirus has affected airlines, hotels, and cruises in one chart"

Cruise ships are losing more and more passengers as the corona
virus spreads. We already see the economy (the market) spiraling downward in
the main sectors of transportation. This economic trend will slow down, as so
will cruise lines. However, I see an opportunity for cruise lines to exploit
their resources. While there are more cases of the virus spreading throughout
the states, more and more people with be in hospitals. Hospitals will become
overpacked, and thus leaving many patients without a place to be quartered and
treated. Cruise lines can offer rooming and facilities, not only to US patients,
but to neighboring countries who are dealing with this outbreak. This opportunity
is relatively easy to exploit considering cruise lines are desperate for some
time of way to produce sales. I believe my interpretation of negative situations
happening in my life and finding solutions to them has led me to see cruise
lines suffering, people with the virus suffering, and both are able to accommodate
one another (this goes for opportunity 1 as well).
Opportunity 3: " No gatherings over 50 people, the CDC says. Here’s what couples are doing with their wedding plans."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gave guidelines
to American to not have any social event where it would be gatherings of more
than 50 people. Soon we can see laws of not having any social gatherings during
outbreaks of diseases. In this devasting situation, I see an opportunity to connect
people in specific situations: birthday parties, weddings, funerals, etc.
online. Some type of product, unlike factime, or Skype, which enables many users
to view an event and be able to chat and interact. I remember when I was little,
and I would be sick all the time so I would always call and say hello without
going to the even. I always wished their was a way I could interreact with
them.
Opportunity 4: " Volusia County beaches to remain open, enforce new regulations amid coronavirus concerns"
Some beaches in the US are opened, while some
are closed. In Miami, many teens gather in a sense of humor to the outbreak. Regulations
will take place in order to keep social interaction distant. Beaches are closed
because of worry of close interaction. If lots were placed in order to keep
individuals separated, then families, or individuals can enjoy the beach by
themselves. These lots can be constructed in a way which enables people to relax
at the beach with ease. In the near future, regulator changes could be made to
restrict people going to the beach, however, I see an opportunity before this
outcome occurs.
