Public utilities do
not need to make a profit. They can concentrate on providing a quality service,
a public good. By contrast, the primary objective of private utilities is not
to provide a public good, but profit and profitability. This simple CLD tries
to show the conflict that can arise from this and a hidden dynamic, a reinforcing
feedback loop, that can lead to disaster. Unfortunately, there are examples where
failure in infrastructure maintenance has led to disaster. On the 9th of July
2009, the German newspaper 'Welt Online' reported that the authorities in Berlin
had to intervene and force the
company that was running Berlin's S-Bahn (suburban rail service) to withdraw
half of all the city's trains from service because they were considered unsafe!
Something similar happened in the UK where failure to maintain rail tracks led
to serious accidents.

Explanation
This model shows the COVID-19 outbreak in Burnie and how the government policy impacts the economy. The possible phases when the infectious disease spreads in Burnie can be labelled as Susceptible, Infection and Recovery, which are main factors in the model. It is concluded that the government policy can reduce the infectious disease and also the impact in the overall economy.
Assumption
The Government Healthy Policy will affect the decrease in the infection and economy growth rate at the same time.
The Government Health Policy is only triggered when there are more than 10 cases
The increase in number of COVID-19 cases can affect negatively towards the economic growth.
Interesting Insights:
The Government's vaccination promote will reduce the possibility of spreading the infectious disease.
When vaccination rate increase, the dead, infected people and susceptible group will all decrease. This reveals that the crucial role in government's vaccination promote program.
When there is more than 10 confirmed cases, the government policies can effectively reduce the infections and the overall economic activities.

Shared Team Narrative Diagram
On the occasion of th G20-meeting in Toronto, the German Economics minister Herr Schaüble said that without restoring confidence it would not be possible to get consumer spending and business investment going. Similar remarks were made by David Cameron and Señor Zapatero of Spain. All maintain that confidence is a pre-requisite to get growth going and that, therefore, it was imperative to reduce fiscal deficits. Reducing the fiscal deficit will restore confidence at first. However, reducing the deficit very quickly will introduce a dynamic that may cause the economy to decline - and perhaps depress consumers demand even further. It will actually destroy confidence: few businesses are inclined to invest in a shrinking economy. Cutting the deficit too rapidly or too steeply can lead to a confidence trap.
NOTE: A big experiment is now taking place in the UK - the government has cut public spending severely! Will this lead to hardship and, perhaps, social unrest?
