麻豆约拍

As the US presidential count continues we consider prospects for the country's economy. The 麻豆约拍's Samira Hussein in New York fills us in on how markets are responding to the latest figures, and we find out how businesses are likely to respond whatever the outcome, with Julie Veratti, co-founder of Denizens Brewery in Maryland. Also in the programme, voters in California have voted to exempt so-called gig economy companies like Uber and Lyft from a state law that required them to classify their workers as employees rather than contractors. We get reaction from Cherri Murphy, a gig economy driver representing the pressure group Gig Workers Rising. In Denmark, the country's entire 17m population of mink are to be culled, amid fears they may be harbouring a Covid-19 mutation that could be a threat to the effectiveness of any future human vaccine for the disease. The 麻豆约拍's Adrienne Murray fills us in on the details. Plus, we have a report from Dougal Shaw on the kinds of transferable skills that can be useful to people who have lost their jobs and are looking to retrain.
