How the Coronavirus Has Broken the Global Economy
In a matter of weeks the Covid-19 virus has turned the world upside down. In the start of a new season of Stephanomics, James Mayger and Zhu Lin report from Chinaย - the original epicenter of the virus โ on how truck drivers there are trying to get back to normal. Then host Stephanie Flanders asks US economist Adam Posen how the economics profession has risen to the challenge of the crisis - and whether the right advice has been getting through to governments.

In this third season of Stephanomics weโll be doing our best to help you understand that story with reporting and insights from experts inside and outside Bloomberg.
