How will Covid-19 be remembered?

Last thread about Horrid-19 from me for now, promise :stuck_out_tongue:

Will we ever get rid of it? Will it mutate? How will we look back on it? How will we remember it? Will any nicknames gain traction…

I’ll personally remember it with the memes. Here’s one:

Did you saw it before or maybe yourself noticed same coincidences?

Of course we will. Even in worst scenarios there is no epidemic killing 100% of population and that applies to animals as well.

We in Europe already have mutated virus which is more aggressive and potentially could kill more people in Europe (maybe even in single countries) than in China.

It really depends on country … I said how it looks now in Poland here:

and most probably it will no change, so it would be (politicians) “anti-crisis fail compilation 2020”. Not sure if we even would remember about “covid-19” name, because of how much we would remember politicians.

In Italy people potentially could learn that even if they are in hot country they are not 100% safe and maybe it will go better.

I heard that Canada made good moves pretty quickly, so most probably they would not remember it as bad as other countries.

In Japan people laugh how sad is South Korea, because Japan closed borders for them. Also most probably Shinzō Abe would not be a Prime Minister in next elections, because of decision about Diamond Princess. From what I heard people in Japan are of course cautious, but also they are chilling. I envy them so much.

Where Next?
