It's clear the pandemic is not yet over as the world faces the Delta variant, unequal global vaccination rates, and the need for vaccine booster shots. At the same time, economic recovery is a priority for governments around the world even as the World Bank predicts a robust, if uneven, post-recession recovery. While the U.S. and China are expected to contribute about one quarter of global growth in 2021, questions remain around rising inflation, labor shortages, and disruptions to the supply chain. MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi returns to Asia Society Texas Center to discuss the latest on the pandemic and what’s ahead for the U.S. and global economic recovery.
