The source adds the following information:
- The first post-COVID-19 scenario (optimistic) "uses World Bank recent estimates with -8.8% real GDP growth, at constant factor prices."
- The second post-COVID-19 scenario (pessimistic) "simulates a
growth of -11.9%, i.e. the economy achieves the same growth as that achieved during the first half of the year."
The Gini coefficient measures the distribution of income among the population:
0 = perfect equality
100 = perfect inequality
Data are calculations based on the National Survey on Household Budget, Consumption and Standard of Living (EBCNV 2015).

Impact of COVID-19 on Gini coefficient in Tunisia 2020
A study conducted in December 2020 considered that the Gini coefficient in Tunisia would increase due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The Gini index measures the levels of equality (0) or inequality (100) in the distribution of income among the population. Within a pessimistic scenario, where Tunisia's gross domestic product (GDP) contracted by **** percent, the Gini coefficient would reach ****, compared to around ** before the pandemic, which indicates a worsening in the income inequality.
