1/ Centuries from now, when history books are written, what will they write about this era? photo from 1918 Spanish flu ward. #COVID19 #CoronaVirus #COVID2019 #COVIDー19 #COVID

2/ Will it be about the cold war, the fall of the Berlin wall? the Soviet Union? Decreasing poverty worldwide? Bill Gates and Steve Jobs? The Creation of the Internet? 9/11? President Trump or President Obama? Syria? The genetic revolution? The opioid epidemic?

Likely not.
