Keith Wade, Chief Economist, joins the pod to discuss the potential impact of coronavirus on the global economy.
We discuss the latest developments, what action policymakers have taken and whether it is enough.
We ask if coronavirus has the potential to cause a financial crisis? And how long before the effects of an economic lock down causes a bigger humanitarian crisis than the virus itself?
