In the second episode of Arth Unearth, Srinath Muralidharan joins hosts Akash and Ruchir to talk about the 2011 movie Contagion in the context of the Coronavirus pandemic that is plaguing the world currently. This is the second part where they deconstruct complex issues like testing and vaccine development. They also discuss the lockdowns and their impact on supply chains and talk about, at great length, government stimulus programs and what they mean for the economy.
