Raphael Bostic (President and CEO, Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta) and Richard Green (Director, Lusk Center for Real Estate) discuss the unprecedented impact that COVID-19 has made on the US and how the Federal Government has taken unprecedented steps to meet that challenge. Bostic emphasizes that getting a handle on health is an important prerequisite to making economic efforts stick. Reflecting upon the quick, broad, and bi-partisan efforts made since the COVID-19 outbreak, Bostic points out that "when very unexpected things happen, everything is possible".
