From the Vault: Can Prediction Markets Fight Coronavirus?
Video at https://youtu.be/R3yJnm3WbrE
We'd hoped this episode from about 100 years ago (April) might be less relevant by now. Alas, it's even more so. We also have a mightier horde of subscribers than we did then (welcome!), so we hope our new friends find this one of interest.
Original show notes follow...
COVID-19 is wreaking havoc not just on its hundreds of thousands of biological victims, but on the very viability of the global health care infrastructure, financial markets, and the daily routines of billions of people.
Can prediction markets help humanity even the score? Could they help policymakers and the general public anticipate and respond more quickly and effectively to unfolding emergencies like the coronavirus pandemic?
Yes.
But should they?
Also, yes.
