Italy on Coronavirus lockdown

Shops, schools and businesses closed in some regions, putting pressure on the economy

A spike in cases of the new coronavirus in Italy fuelled concerns of a possible pandemic. Professor Michele Geraci is an economist who was until recently the undersecretary of state at the Italian Ministry of Economic Development, and discusses the possible economic implications of parts of Italy being put into lockdown. Also in the programme, our regular workplace commentator Peter Morgan reflects on the success or otherwise of employers' attempts to boost the fitness of their workforce. Plus the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s Elizabeth Hotson looks at how brands aim to forge strong relationships with certain types of music.
