michael: right. sorts,fighting a war of typically run ups and deficits in the way we are seeing now, would be a wartime situation. how you deal with that over the very long term is typically a combination of economic growth and may be a bit of inflation and austerity. later.that comes we have an emergency here, a crisis. people need to be protected. we need to shield that blow. it is basically a planned shutdown of the economy, self-induced, but necessary. we need to try to cushion the blow. we can do that with historically low interest rates. necessary, it will run up the debt, but hopefully, with stronger growth in the future, that is one way to deal with it. and austerity, but not now. the austerity comes later. darda with us. again, in 20 minutes, the vice chairman of the federal reserve system, richard clarida of columbia university. you know him working with pemco as their global strategist for years. hpc,ow, advising the advising jay powell on a daily basis. this is bloomberg. ♪ taylor: i am

michael, do you want to kick off on this? 0ne one of the things that is vaguely, it is not vaguely, it is completely about coronavirus. the country with, i think, now the fourth largest outbreak of coronavirus, it may change, is iran. because over the last few years, reporting restrictions have made it virtually impossible for western journalists to remain in tehran and cover the country, and it's a very important country. we have no idea what's going on. to me, that is something that is a lack, because iran sits in a very important strategic position, i'm able to follow news from kurdistan via twitter. in baghdad, pilgrimage season is on, we don't know if people are sneaking in from iran to go to the pilgrimage sites. all of this is critical because, as we learned in china, when you have a dictatorial regime, you can argue whether china is a dictatorship or merely authoritarian, but the dictatorship in iran... what we need now more than anything is clear, open sharing of facts amongst medical professionals about what is happ

michael atkinson, a disgrace. michael atkinson did what his job required him to do. he went to the congressional intelligence committee to report that there was a whistle-blower complaint he didn't think was being followed properly. totally understand why donald trump would think that's a bad thing, but it doesn't actually imply any wrongdoing on michael atkinson's part. >> no, i think what the president was saying today was that whistle-blower complaint was unfounded, which of course was not true. that a majority of what the whistle-blower was saying was actually other people corroborated. i think it's not surprising this happened. i guess what's been surprising it's been all these many months later. if you'll recall in february after the impeachment trial he did dismiss two other people as well that were involved in the case that testified. so the question is really about the timing of this sort of thing as opposed to anything else really. he has indicated -- the president has indicated that those were against him, those he couldn't trust anymore he would fire and

nobody really knows, michael. we've been following these projections from some of the experts, global experts, but they're just projections because nobody's been here before. this is uncharted territory for everyone. the important point to me is the numbers aren't doing anything on their own. this is all a function of what people are doing. right? so it is directly related to our behavior. i keep pushing to stay at home, stay at home. don't get complacent just because you see the situation isn't getting worse doesn't mean it's going to get better on its own and you can relax. the numbers are a consequence of our daily actions. i'll tell you what the numbers are tomorrow if you tell me how we behave today, right? it's almost that cause and effect, so people have to understand if we did nothing or if people didn't comply with these close down messages and social distancing requirements, you would see those numbers go up on a straight rocket ship. it's what we're doing that's working and we have to keep doing it and

michael mckee will stick with me. just to recap what the ecb actually did, it cut its lowest interest rate on targeted loan operations. it also launched a new program to really target pandemic loans. they add seven more additional refinance operations, and also lowered rates 25 basis below that main rate. they did not refinance the purchase program, but said they stand ready to do that. some firepower being held, but a lot still being done, particularly on the lending facilities to support acts, as we wait for the pressure on eu leaders -- to support banks, as we wait for the pressure on eu leaders. coming up in the next hour, we are going to be speaking with someone who is very familiar with what the eurozone is facing now. . we are going to talk to george papaconstantinou. i am going to get that right in the next five minutes. the former greg feynman's minister -- former greek finance minister. that is coming up. this is bloomberg. ♪ these days staying connected is more important than ever. so we're working 24/7 t

michael f: right. we have a strong second half, but not strong enough to get an employment back down to levels that we like to see the map by the end of the year. we do see some lasting damage to activity in terms of damage to financial balance sheets. we see damage to the labor market, which will probably take time to undo. weiously stimulus helps, but think probably more is warranted. but as i say, you should have some bounce inactivity simply from if the virus runs the course by the end of the second quarter, some of those consumer .ervices start to reopen obviously there's a lot that underpins that assumption, but even with a benign assumption of the virus, there's reason to believe that the economic damage is going to be lasting. alix: and we are going to get adp right now. -27,000 comey just of the employment change for march. the expectation was for -150,000. it is still negative, you are still looking at sequentially a substantial loss, but nonetheless, just -27,000. mckee is still with me. i'm

michael: good to be with you. david: we had the texas governor saying that people will be vulnerable, but they will take care of themselves. we have to get the economy going. how do you approach an ethical dilemma like that? when you depress an economy, you lose lives like that, too. michael: it is important not to imagine that trade-off too starkly, or say that we will sacrifice a certain number of order tor citizens in get back in business, to get the economy moving again, to pump up the gdp. that is a purely utilitarian way of thinking. the utilitarianism of it has a really callous regard for every precious human life. what we need to think about now, seems to me, is the common good. the health of the economy is part of the common good. so is public health. thanimportant, in a way, either, is the respect we have for one another. what we should be debating now, david, is what we owe one another as citizens. this is a fundamental question of the common good. david: to some extent, if you do goingyou say we are no
