Yes, I do think that COVID19 *might* be remembered differently, in part because of the superior (electronic, real-time) documentation of our predicament. #ApollosArrowChat 1/ https://twitter.com/davidrosenthal/status/1322249242950488068">https://twitter.com/davidrose...

And yet, the Black Death had quite an impact on collective memory, as I also discuss in APOLLO& #39;S ARROW, deploying what was, for its day, cutting edge (artistic) communications. 2/
