Velocity of Risk Goes Viral - a podcast by Bloomberg

Paranoia about the coronavirus is spreading rapidly around the world, and the reaction in financial markets has been swift. Principal Global Investors strategist Seema Shah discusses how the “velocity of risk” is much faster now than it was during the outbreak of a similar virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome or SARS, in 2003. Also joining the podcast is Bloomberg Opinion’s health-care columnist Max Nisen, who explains how the clinical trial process and the profit incentives for drugmakers mean the quick development of a coronavirus vaccine is unlikely.
