Alvaro Espinoza in La Mula: Markets and coronavirus: what to do with them?

“We have to understand that we are in a different situation than in recent years. It is a time where we have to readjust how we behave, it is an opportunity to break some traditional behaviors. In a scenario where the pandemic continues, sellers want to work and consumers want to buy, but they don’t want to expose themselves. There is a tradition of popular organization in times of crisis that is going to start carving with or without the help of the state.” Alvaro Espinoza, associate researcher at GRADE, discussed with Javier Torres, Juan Infante and Elsie Guerrero about the problem of crowding and contagion in the markets, in La Mula.
