n95 respirator, 'Dr. Oz Show' host Dr. Mehmet Oz joins Harris Faulkner to discuss the coronavirus outbreak on 'Outnumbered Overtime.' The one-two punch of coronavirus and an escalating oil price war that is roiling world markets is hurting one country more than any other: Iran. Already dealing with a deadly outbreak, the Islamic Republic, heavily dependent on oil revenues, is in no position to deal with the lowest per-barrel prices seen in decades. CORONAVIRUS: HOW COUNTRIES AROUND THE WORLD ARE REACTING TO THE OUTBREAK

Timely stimulus for net consumers. Catastrophic for failed/failing petro-kleptocracies Iraq, Iran, etc. - may prove existential 1-2 punch when paired with COVID19. Iran's oil exports, its main economic lifeline, have been under siege for quite some time. Experts say the escalation of the global price war between Saudi Arabia, the world's top exporter, and Russia could cripple many nations outside Saudi Arabia, with Iran topping the list.

Now, with oil trading around $30 a barrel, many experts say the price isn't one Iran can survive on. Saudi Arabia and Russia formed the so-called OPEC+ alliance in 2016 after oil prices plunged.

The Saudis wanted even steeper cuts, but Russian President Vladimir Putin refused to play along, worrying that it would give American oil producers too much ground.

The Saudis, angered by Russia's refusal, said Sunday it would open its spigots and drive down prices. If a true price war ensues, there will be plenty of pain in the oil markets, Badr Jafar, president of Crescent Petroleum, a United Arab Emirates oil company, told The New York Times. Many will be bracing for the economic and geopolitical shocks of a low-price environment.
n95 respirator - In no place is that more clear than Iran, which has already been feeling the sting from American sanctions. Export earnings in Tehran have also been drastically slashed and experts warn that a further decline could stretch what little ability the country has left to pay for vital services and security. The fall in oil prices could actually have more of an effect on the country than Western sanctions had had over the past several years, says Justin Dargin, a Middle East energy expert from Oxford University.
