The economic consequences of a pandemic

The Alex Salmond Show discusses the economics of the coronavirus crisis with author of 'The Pandemic Century' Dr Mark Honigsbaum and with international economists Dr Stephanie Fabri and Professor David Blanchflower, who chart an economic strategy for world recovery. Dr Honigsbaum explains how the UK government blundered into a “herd immunity” policy in responding to Covid-19, while Professor Blanchflower argues that Western governments were as unprepared for the pandemic of 2020 as they were for the financial crisis of a decade ago.
