In Iceland, the number of people employed in the tourism sector dropped from 32,906 in the third quarter of 2019 to 14,500 in the first quarter of 2021. Figures for 2018 and 2019 indicate some seasonal variations, but the fall of employment figures over the summer of 2020 indicate the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
