Baier, Chair of the Clemson Department of Economics, who will make a presentation on the potential impact of the novel coronavirus on the U.S. economy. Dr. Baier, a frequent speaker on the U.S. economy, will discuss how the coronavirus is affecting the economy, highlighting particularly vulnerable industries and workers.
The focus of the presentation will be the government’s policy response – both by the Federal Reserve and Congress – and the likely efficacy of those policies.
