Martin Eichenbaum

Israel Economic Review, 2020, vol. 18, issue 1, 81-90

Abstract: Policymakers in the COVID-19 era face two critical challenges. First, they must design policies that improve the tradeoff between economic activity and health outcomes. Second, they must design policies to reduce the long-run damage that a COVID-19 induced recession inflicts on the economy. This paper briefly discusses appropriate responses to those challenges.
