St. Pete Chamber presents: "Coronavirus Impact Insights" 5-21-20

Episode 3638,   May 22, 2020, 12:53 PM


On this episode, Margie Manning, finance editor of the St. Pete Catalyst joins Chris Steinocher, CEO of the St. Petersburg Chamber of Commerce and Joe Hamilton, publisher of the St. Pete Catalyst.

But first, Steinocher takes listeners through the Florida Chamber Scorecard for Pinellas County. He says the outlook is optimistic, as the percent of positive tests cases hovers at less than 2 percent, and the 14-day average of positive cases has stayed hovering around 20 per day, just short of the Pinellas County’s peak of 25 positive cases per day in April, though testing has widely expanded since then.

Manning shares her professional background, which started in radio journalism, followed by her work at the St. Louis Business Journal. Manning moved to St. Petersburg to start an ice cream shop on the beach with her husband and then went back to journalism in 2004 for the Tampa Bay Business Journal. She joined the St. Pete Catalyst team in 2018.
