welcome back to roll down the pike with william robinson professor of sociology abby university of california santa barbara should i said speaking of ballad the. response to this been demick i think it's a bit counter to egypt and even ironic that the countries with the most laissez faire economies like let's say the united states had to impose strikes have the restrictions on businesses while a country like sweden this beacon all what and they socialists chose not to do that which approach you're more sympathetic to. absolutely the traumatic a lockdown is crucial and necessary in the united states and european countries are the ones in the kitchen but my biggest concern of me has wrestle with the whole world and the lockdown which is imposed for instance in india in the central american countries and south africa where 6070 percent of the population is in the informal sector and besides it's a lot like if you're homeless and you don't spam always living in one single rooms also project tony left on the message that we do need to at least you know in france in the united states and russia is

the most recent study, looking at virus spill—over risk, from the university of california — davis, cautionsandemic is connected to habitat loss, exploitation of wildlife and species extinction. the study suggests infectious diseases emerging from wildlife are increasing faster than ever. the scientists conclude that beyond covid—19, new thinking on land management, animal resources and the environment could help reduce the risk of the next pandemic, or even prevent it altogether. joining me from davis in california is lead author of that study professor christine kreuderjohnson, who is director at the predict project into emerging pandemic threats. also from california, we're joined by environmental scientist, laura bloomfield, who's also published research this month, looking at increased human contact with non—human primates, caused by habitat fragmentation in africa. thank you to you both. professor christine kreuderjohnson, starting with you, please. he said spill—over of viruses from animals is a direct result of our actions involving wildlife and their habitat. this pandemic is not a

well for more let's bring in barry eichengreen he is a professor of economics at the university of california berkeley thanks so much for your time you believe there are parallels between what is happening now with the pandemic and the great depression talk to us about what those parallels are and what lessons can be learned i think the international monetary fund was correct to call out the parallels this is the. most serious economic downturn since the great depression of the 1930 s. in addition this is a global downturn like the great depression was the financial crisis in 20082009 was primarily in advanced country problem and a lot of emerging markets get it through it but this problem is global and this problem is unfolding much more quickly than 20082009 christ's what does the speed of the downturn mean for how deep things might go and how fast or otherwise the recovery might be. well one way to think about it is that in the 1st year of the great depression between $129.93 the unemployment rate in the united states rose from 3 and a half percent to 9 percent so we accomplished that if a

can and i profess a molecular biology and immunology at the school of medicine at the university of southern california i asked to how exactly antibody tests work so antibody is a sort of molecules that are body makes when we've been infected with a virus and they're very specific for the virus they literally stick to the virus and stop it working so an antibody test is looking for the presence of those antibodies in our blood because that is a real indicator that we may have been infected already with us and that speaks to the reliability reliability question rather how reliable are antibody tests in actually showing that a person has been infected. shows so not only that pretty but i will say currently for all the tests that are being to ballot now sort of on the market to test coronavirus antibodies there are some questions it's a little bit of the wild west out there the over 200 kits that have been made and rushed to market and while i fully expect that some of them are going to be grey i also think a significant number likely to not be accurate enough to really give us useful information right ev

now one of the largest public university systems in america has decided it will not require the s.a.t. or a.c.t. scores for incoming classes of 2021 freshmen. it's the university of california, announcing that it will ease admissions requirements. the 200,000 prospective students seeking a seat at schools like uc berkeley, ucla, uc santa cruz, uc san diego, will not have to submit s.a.t. scores or even letter grades to some required courses. the shift in the admissions process coming after students who were planning to take standardized tests like the s.a.t. or a.c.t. this spring to boost their college applications found their plans completely derailed, testing centers have been closed, everything has come the a standstill with all exams canceled or postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak. the college board which runs the s.a.t. tests told me that it will and by the way, they have also told the "l.a. times" this, it will provide additional s.a.t. testing dates and increased capacity as soon as the public health situation allows, but they have also told me, because i have been speaking to both the s.a.t. college board and the a.c.t., that their ceos are preparing for a sta

in the piece from "the new york times," university of california at berkeley economics professor gabrielucman reports, quote, throughout the world governments are protecting employment. workers are keeping their jobs even in industries that are shut down. the government covers most of their wage through direct payments to employers. wages are in effect socialized for the duration of the crisis. gabriel zucman joins me now. that's exactly what i was just talking to sarah nelson about, the concept of how the money was going to get to the airlines was that taxpayer money was going to go in the form of a grant to the airlines to keep its payroll going. that money could not be used for increases in salary, not for executive compensation, not for stock buybacks, not for dividends. other countries have employed that model across the economic spectrum. >> yeah, and we think that's the right model. so last week 6.6 million workers filed for unemployment insurance. that's 10 million workers in two weeks. the unemployment rate goes to 10%. it might rise to as much as 20% or even 30%, and although u
