Pandemics Overview (what we have learned about pandemics after living through Covid-19 and learning about past pandemics) - Juliana Marston and Sydney Champagne

What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?

This is an audio-only interview recording.

Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.

We are both students in college. In our History of Pandemics class, we learned about past pandemics (namely the Bubonic Plague, Smallpox, Cholera, and Influenza pandemics) and how they impacted society. This course also challenged us to compare and contrast the current pandemic to those of the past, while considering how mankind may fare in pandemics moving forward. We discuss these things and more in the interview recording.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
