Can This American Biotech Company Save the Global Economy?
The COVID-19 respiratory illness has fanned out across the globe, forcing governments and businesses to take unprecedented steps in the quest to slow its spread. What's more, several professional sports leagues such as the NBA, NHL, MLB, and MLS have all hit the pause button on their seasons. And the NCAA even had to cancel its March Madness basketball tournament in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic.
This is uncharted territory from both an economic and public health standpoint. No one seems to know what comes next or when the pandemic will fade into the pages of history. Even the notion that the onset of warmer weather this coming summer -- one of the key factors that halted the spread of SARS-CoV back in 2003 -- might stem the virus's spread is a shaky proposition at best.
