Abstract
The COVID-19 outbreak posed severe challenges to tourism and hospitality. The volume of COVID19-pertinent research has remarkably grown. This study conducted a systematic review of initial COVID-19 research in tourism and hospitality using a mixed-method approach to enable researchers to understand the state-of-the-art knowledge. Content analysis and bibliometric analysis were conducted. At the initial research stage, research themes of more than 70% of related articles focused on the theme of responses to COVID-19. Additional findings were provided in the study. This study provides an overview of the research in its initial stage to gain academics' attention to the COVID19 research in tourism and hospitality. In the future, a periodical review of this realm is necessary to reflect the changes in research focus.
