francesca, welcome. >> thank you, joshua.having me. >> we mentioned the president's been vocal about his hesitation to wear a mask. we've seen him recently out in public without one. how much do you think this is actually political in a deeper sense, as opposed to the president just being obstinate? >> oh, it goes real deep with this president. if he wore a mask or his vice president wore a mask, they would have to admit that the virus is real. and think of the stock market. so that's a difficult hurdle to get over. now we're seeing the ramifications of that. within the white house itself. but it's so interesting to me the way that it also displays this false masculinity, right? like that they're just trying to exemplify some sort of machismo, as if they think "mask" is short for "emasculate." if you're a tough guy, you're not going to get sick, but other people will. and again, americans are following suit. we know the fish rots from the head down, as they say. so people are taking after the president's bad example. and of c

francesca, how does this medical precaution become such a cultural big deal?sts, shouting matches, there are charges of first-degree murder relating to a security guard being shot connected to a face mask. it was fun when it was an internet meme and one of these cull tue war things but now it has gotten really heavy and a little crazy. what is going on here. i think there's two issues, one is the actual wearing of a mask which obviously has been politicized as we just talked about, and the other is the way that mask wearing and social distancing guidelines have been enforced, and how it has been enforced, and how one is policed. and it has a lot to do with one's race and social economic status and relative privilege, right? so while you see some people complaining on twitter, that mayor garcetti of los angeles is requiring people to wear masks outside on trails, and seeking exemptions, other people, let's say in brooklyn, new york, are being brutalized by police officers, for not wearing a mask or being socially distant enough. and i know that in the west vill

francesca, delighted to have you on the program. thank you for joining us this morning.ll as not seeing a sick impact from covid, you have confirmed your goals. can you give us more detail around that? >> thank you, sure. well, we have had a major lockdown in both spain and italy which are big countries for us. but, you know, the energy sector , if you want anti-cyclical, we have had a big change in which energy is being consumed, so a drop on the demand on the industrial side and a surge on the domestic market, which basically evened out, or perhaps a bit complicated to explain in a few minutes, but that is the bottom line. we are concerned we were very successful in putting everybody in a safe mode at home working there, and we have today 37,000 people working from home. withhas enabled us to cope the first covid-19 parts of the crisis. then it remains to be seen what will be from now on on the subsequent -- which is just starting now in both countries, italy and spain. as the rest of the world in which we are present, the u.s. and america, are still in phase one. so w
