We're now more than 18 months into the pandemic that most of us never thought could or would ever happen. Unlike anything else we've experienced in our lives, this virus affected the entire planet -- every person in every country at every far-flung corner of the earth.

His new book, released just yesterday, is "Shutdown: How Covid Shook the World's Economy"
