"Nobody could have imagined the Coronavirus crisis. But the scope and damage are enormous. The Black Swan event is here. Nassim Taleb calls it a White Swan, an expected pandemic that will eventually happen. You can buy his book to learn this distinction."<p>I'm confused by this comment. If Phuoc Do, the author of this blog post, disagrees with Taleb about what a "Black Swan" event is, what does he think it means instead, and why is he citing Taleb?
