This paper provides some insights on the effects of the Covid pandemic, on the economic vulnerability of Italian society. Data come from the first 5 waves of a special social survey, held by Bank of Italy, to monitor the economic consequences of the Covid emergency. Economic vulnerability is assessed through a set of four ordinal variables, then condensed into a synthetic measure, by using tools from Partial Order Theory; social groups are identified based on profiling socio-economic variables. Results reveal the heavy economic impact of the pandemic and the risk of increased polarization of the Italian society.
