So predictions and theiroutcomes one year later:

Wrong:

- Coronavirus would be seasonal like the flu

- Masks were unnecessary

- Crowded beaches would become superspreader events

- Contact-tracing apps would be the new norm

Mixed:

- Refugee camps would be hit hardest by the virus

- Travel bans would stop the virus’s spread

Correct:

- Domestic violence would rise

- Job losses and school closures would affect women disproportionately
