The only business-relevant exception: Masaa DMC's Ramy Radwan interviewed Eric Ochelan, director of the International Labor Organization in Cairo, who said that the pandemic had led to an unprecedented crisis in the global labor market.

Ochelan said that the ILO is working with partners in Egypt to provide technical support specifically for women, who are more at risk of losing their jobs (watch, runtime: 21:15).
