Either with or without "the." There is a slight difference -- "the economic fallout" implies you know what that fallout will be. "Economic fallout" is more vague.

Agreed with @Adam, but another possibility is to put neither. "To offset economic fallout from the pandemic" refers to "economic fallout" as a state of being or condition, therefore uncountable.

you need to put a "the". Economy is a countable noun it therefore needs to be preceeded by a definite article.
