Coronavirus: The ethics of reopening for business

The most compelling reports from ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ business programmes over the past week

The most compelling reports and interviews from the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'s business programmes over the past week, examining the huge issues facing policymakers and asking what the future holds for our working lives. This week we ask a big moral question - will the deliberate shutting down of economies in an effort to slow Covid-19 kill more than the virus itself? Or as some have predicted will a recession actually save lives? We have a report from Brazil where conflicting messaging has sown confusion and fear. As ever we’ll be looking at how the virus is affecting life and work - hearing from small business owners, musicians and even horticulturalists. Presented by Lucy Burton.
