The outbreak has not simply pressured financial markets and near-term growth: it has sparked a reevaluation of many assumptions about the global economy, such as our infatuation with just-in-time supply chains or our reliance on international air travel.

Business will change. Consumption will change. And we will be more deeply reliant on our families and each other to stay safe.
