Tourists tend to postpone or cancel their plans especially when the way that Covid spreads, treatment of disease and feature of Covid were not learnt thoroughly. These factors can directly cause blow to tourism. For a province like Sichuan, where tourism is a major part of the economy, revenue from tourism is an important part of economic income.
