When will we start traveling again? Here's what experts are saying | | | WED, MAY 06, 2020 | | | The coronavirus pandemic will change the world forever. It has rocked the international economy and it has disrupted our lives like nobody could have imagined or predicted.
Just as this disease has shattered lives, disrupted markets and exposed the competence of governments, it will lead to permanent shifts in political and economic power in ways that will only become apparent over the next few years.
To help make sense of how this crisis will unfold, over the next few weeks (perhaps months) the CNBC news teams will present various segments in a new series, "The Next Normal." The teams will ask experts in various industries to weigh in and offer their best predictions on what the world will look like when the pandemic finally recedes.
Stay safe everyone. Wear those masks when you go out and wash those hands!
