Our paper this week is dominated by the pandemic. Our first
two leaders look at how to deal with the disease and, as far as possible, how
to spare the economy. As the virus burns its way across Europe and North
America, and begins to take hold in the developing world, our cover leader reports on two strategies
to defeat it and draws on the lessons from China and South Korea. Be under no
illusions, though: even the best policy might not prevent the pandemic from
exacting a heavy toll.
As governments and central banks pour trillions of dollars
into helping households and businesses, our second leader analyses how they should
best spend their money. If the virus retreats only to resurge, workers and
firms must be confident that governments will dial assistance down and up
again as needed.

our coverage of the virus and its consequences. And look out for a special
edition of this newsletter on Saturday.
