Man I remember sitting in my social studies class and being scared hearing that two people got the plague in Mongolia and now everything is going back to normal with the new variant coming
I remamber my sister coming to my room and telling me we're have 2 weeks off school and I had mixed feelings and I couldn't sleep that night I stayed awake till 3 am trying to figure out when the virus will end My estimate was around April 18 BTW don't any of you miss your old self before the pandamic?
@@immortalbrolyblack2891 I know! So many people were ecstatic we were getting to stay at home from school, and I was sitting there nearly having a panic attack reading the email!
@celly8945 "God it’s so weird watching this 3 years later" 2020 truly felt like the end. The impending end of humanity, the apocalypse, or “doomsday,” if you will. With quarantine going into effect in March of 2020, and the battle with COVID-19, natural disasters running rampant across the country, increasing economic disparity, shrinking job markets, conflicts and protests/riots were happening worldwide, and a (now former) U.S. president who wasn’t doing anything to alleviate the struggles but instead spreading false information about the deadly virus and downplaying it- 2020 felt like the end of times. It wasn’t a 2012 Mayan calendar fear this time, but something far bigger and something based in fact. The world seemed to be crumbling before us and if you turned on a television and put it on any news station, basically nothing was going right in the world. You could practically say that the pandemic is my generations 9/11 (traumatic historical events - the events that happen in our youth which, in part, shape our worldview and, in turn, shape the ways we make decisions about money, careers, family and so much more). Hell, what a year that was. I was one of the privileged ones that got affected the least by that frightful year besides my school closing down on March 13, 2020 a.k.a Friday the 13th (that should’ve been a bad omen or an ominous red flag/warning of how things would turn out lol…) before the Spring Break even started, with us maybe coming back to school after the Spring Break (this was before we knew just how bad and awful things would truly get worldwide and that we would be gone a *lot* longer than just two weeks…, two whole years to be exact…), and I remember as we were all leaving and going home, I remember I told my friend at the time that I’ll see him after the break and he just said, “Yeah” or “Alright” in a whatever kind of way, and to this very day, even after quarantine finally ended and we went back to school, I never saw him ever again…, I don’t even know if he’s still alive today… Nevertheless, like for many others, it was a reminder that nothing comes for granted. Nothing is certain. It was a reminder that we need to work on developing acceptance to things we cannot change, let them go and become comfortable with uncertainty. It was a reminder that human connection is indeed the most valuable thing that we often neglect. It was a reminder that common enemies unite us. But do we need an enemy to unite us? I am grateful and thankful that my family members and relatives never ever caught the coronavirus/Covid-19 or were killed by it. The fact that 20 became 21 didn't change much about the pandemic, but we can all use it as a point of a mindset shift. Yeah..., the pandemic really showed us all how uncertain and fragile life is. I mean..., for me personally..., so far the year 2023 has been the most "normal" year so far in the early 2020's and in this decade and I know that *really* isn't saying much at all lol... The global pandemic has finally settled down quite a bit to the point where we are able to travel places and go to huge events without having to bring masks with us (I still do wear a mask whenever I go out even though I'm not required to anymore...) and global inflation seems to have gone down as well.
Same. This is the first time today while writing this message that this is one of the few viruses that are slightly deadly. We do not know what would be the next virus or maybe a virus hard to kill that could cause downfall to nations. Their would be one kind of a virus that are shown in movies that could be realistically possibly in the future and no one could survive that it will reduce the population down to 30% killing the rest 70%. And hopefully it will never happen.
It wasn't the WHO declaring it a pandemic that got people alert, it was when the NBA suspended its season and Tom Hanks tested positive the same day was when people knew shit was going to go down.
Guilty. I remember being out writing a preview for one of the high school lacrosse teams I covered; they practiced late that night, right as Trump was speaking. The coach and I were joking about their team possibly not traveling out of state for spring break. Little did either of us know there wouldn't be a season at all. Even at that point, that Wednesday night, I don't think anyone had a real grasp of how different life would be within a week. I didn't.
Yeah this timeline is out of whack. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver suspended the season and Tom Hanks announced he was positive several hours before the Oval Office Address that night
I still kind of pause to look in awe at full aisles of lysol disinfectant sprays, wipes, rubbing alcohol, and toilet paper whenever im at the grocery store.
The pandemic exposed weaknesses in our global healthcare infrastructure and response mechanisms. We need to learn from this and prepare better for future crises.
Everything in the Modern World had Gone to Severe Decline until Now which Secretly Exposes the Inability and Ineffectiveness of the Republics of Today since 1917-1918.
Man, I don’t care what people say today about this pandemic, March of 2020 was scary AF!!! EVERYONE was scared. Like, what the hell is going on? The world literally stopped, and the movie Outbreak was next. That’s how it felt. Ugh!
What a very odd and scary period that was. Really seemed like a different time in life when we didn't know as much at the time. From the grocery stores be low on paper towels/toliet paper, certain foods, restaurants changing how they work, sports being done in empty arenas, people leaving work in mass, depression was really high for some people I had lost some to suicide and families/coworkers around me lost people to coronavirus. Pictures of bustling cities in the world looking so barren and empty of life such as New York as an example. Interestingly we had more people online than ever for online gaming and people buying vr headset to meet up with people. I remember vr headset being sold out constantly. I remember playing a lot of games I never played and making close friends online. It was also odd receiving money from the government that helped me start a business. Interestingly quite a few people sat around and rethought their life and started working on skills, new hobbies, deciding what matters most, leaving jobs for something better. The covid era is something I'll never forget
Really were still in it. Were learning more and more of the damage covid reinfections are doing with long covid etc. 2022 saw a lot of excess death waves and way more disability then normal. It's just that not many people want to talk about it.

Not sure why all the Muricans went nuts and lost their minds. Suddenly they were all going psycho and blaming lockdown. Every other country went through lockdown and their people didn't go insane. Anyone who got depressed and went nuts over having to chill at home for a bit obviously wasn't mentally stable to begin with. They could still go to the grocery store, go for a walk or a bike ride, it wasnt that big of a deal. Go to the store, get a ton of snacks and sit at home watching movies and chillen out for a bit, not that hard. Nature started to take over again without all the human meddling. Dolphins returned to places they hadn't been in decades maybe longer, nature strived without us.
Its amazing I was in a freshman in high school when 9/11 happened. All those yes later I just became a mother of 3 when Covid-19 hit. To think I witnessed and lived threw a profound moment in history when I was a kid. And my children witnessed and lived threw thier own. So many bad things happen in the world and all we can do is pick the peices and keep going. We as human beings are strong and we can live and triumph threw the worst of times. I just hope and pray that in my grandchildrens generation and the generations to come won't have to go threw what we all did. God bless!! ❤🙏✝️

@@jrmetmoi Think of the plague, and the flu. Gets way more people per year. Not talked about as much. 9/11 had a long lasting impact that will last for history. Covid-19 is just a new one of the diseases, but with the modern social medias reaction.
I lived in Kenmore, WA near where the U.S covid started. It was insane that our grocery stores got completely bought out of food, supplies and essentials for weeks. It was scary. I was told to start wearing a mask at work. Busses shut down, streets were empty, stores were closed, businesses shut their doors. It was craaaazy. . .
I was in boot camp. I didn’t even realize how crazy this was because we were already off the grid and the second week we figured out the whole country shut down. We were the first cycle with this. I wish it never happened
I was working at Home Depot Garden department and watching people buy bulks of water, toilet paper, Lysol, and etc. was insane to the point where the shelves were wiped out. Then the long lines started because we were practically the few of essential stores open.
I became symptomatic on March 11, 2020. We went all over trying to get care. I remember coming home and seeing the announcement on tv. It was bizarre. It was the last normal day of my life.
Was March 1st for me. Which is weird. Means it was REALLY early and I'm not in any huge travel cities or anything. So, I didn't think it was anything but a sore throat when I took my bf out for his bday lunch. Then the next day I felt so much worse and was like "must be strep".. then lost my taste and smell. I still wasn't thinking it was that dang virus, because again I'm not in any large cities. Plus they hadn't released the list of symptoms yet. I just though it was weird and my nose being clogged must be the reason I lost them. Then there was also the fact that I am in kidney failure. So I figured it would've hit harder than that for me, possibly klld me. And it was really baaad. but not hospital bad. It wasn't until the last day or two I had it that I found out that the loss of taste and smell were telltale symptoms. I SOBBED yelling about how I had taken him to lunch and a movie and probably infected people. He tried to comfort me reminding me there was no way I could've possibly known. But.. I still to this day worry if I had touched anything and infected someone. We still don't know where I even caught it
@@aldelvex234 I don't think nostalgic is the right word. For me, nostalgic is something that happened more than 5 years ago, but it really depends on how old you are. I mean, I was in high school then and I am still in high school now, so nothing really changed for me honestly. I might feel differently in 2-3 years, but I don't feel nostalgic about it right now.
I was living in Taiwan during this time and I remember watching the US descend into chaos in March while we had been locked down in January. Crazy times.
I was in the uk and they were still fiddling with their shoelaces on march 11th, we didn't lockdown until late march, which meant it went on for longer as we had to wait for all the death to slow down. Yeah, uk didn't do a very good job of looking after its people back then (or now, to be fair)
I remember the very end of 2019 just felt off then you had Kobe Bryants death in early 2020 which was crazy. When March rolled around it def felt like something outta a sci fi flick. Ill never forget the rabid customers during lockdown.
The week of March 11-18 here in northern New Hampshire is what I call the twilight of normalcy. Nobody was wearing mask or social distancing, things were still open, but there was a general sense of fear, toilet paper was gone, store shelves were picked dry. People were trying to enjoy their last few days before things closed down. Between March 18 and 20, things closed down here one by one and then the worst time period of my life began, at first it wasn't that bad, first three weeks I was able to relax and work on art, catch up on reading. Then by late April 2020 I was miserable. 2020 and 2021 were absolutely miserable for me. Now I hear about people nostalgic for being trapped inside during 2020 and the mandates of 2021 and I'm like "why?"
I remember that on the eve of 12 March 2020 a message came from my school saying that exams are postponed due to novel corona virus and the schools are off till 31 March 2020
I remember Jan/Feb 2020 I was joking with my classmates, friends, and just about anyone really about the pandemic and the WW3 draft. A week before I heard rumors of someone at another local high school getting covid, and we discussed how much it would take to close school. 'Course, I thought it was farfetched that they would stop school entirely for a few dozen sick inviduals, so while I joked about school closing in the locker rooms, I never thought they were seriously gonna close it. The day everything shut down, (March 13th) I was walking in the hallways during lunch because I never really liked to be in the cafeteria during 9th grade. While I was in a corner, I overheard two people on the staircase above me mention how they officially closed school for "2 weeks". I immediately grabbed my phone and texted my Dad about it. Then, after lunch I went back to Algebra class, and he gave the class a packet to do while we were on Covid Break because the SOL's (Final exam) were coming. I wasn't planning on doing that packet anyways, and good thing too because I never saw him after that day and I was so glad too.
I was in 6th grade when Covid hit. And my school was already on Spring break, we were supposed to go back on the 15th, but in March 13th they sent out that email, and that two extra weeks became over a year. I had yet to return to my school until August 2021.
Thank you for having a video that shows the date of the day the world really shut down.. I remember it like yesterday only because at the time.. first person to die was in King County, WA. I was an hour away babysitting my nephews with my mom February 23rd I believe until March 8th when I got back to Wisconsin. Day of arrival in Seattle, Plane was packed.. day coming back, I was laying down wherever I wanted...Washington was ahead of it like they knew what was going on with distancing and sanitizing everything anyone was touching. Reason for my comment is because you look this up, says March 15th which is a lie.. I came back on a plane after the first announced case from covid-19 in the US when mentioned in 2020 of February/March. Landed March 8th, March 11th the world really shut down.
Also I believe it arrived in the US in 2019 around fall because I remember reading everyone on my Facebook posting about being sick and having respiratory issues but Doctors said they couldn't find anything wrong. Remember feeling ill in November of 2019 when I rarely got sick up until than in my life. I'm 35yrs old.. I've been more sick over the years than I was before covid hit.
I remember first hearing that school would be out for 2 weeks and me thinking that it was gonna be fine and that it wasn’t a big deal and I remember very clearly the last day of school before we quarantined, my friends and I were practicing wearing masks from one of my friend’s dad while waiting for the bus and thinking “how are we gonna survive wearing this?!” and then the 2 week break continued on and on while the whole situation was getting worse and I was actually starting to get scared and like was praying not to get the virus but in the end I got it 2 times during the whole pandemic but it wasn’t anything serious, it was only like a bad cold
When the COVID-19 pandemic arrived in Toronto, one of the first events or festivals to be cancelled was the National Home Show at Exhibition Place. The National Home Show was ready to open and welcome visitors, when it got cancelled at the last minute. That decision was made when COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization. The products which were ready to put on display arrived by the truckload. The concessions were just about set up, ready to sell food, drink, and other refreshments. There were also the hundreds of the National Home Show's exhibitors getting ready to work.
We all have bad feelings in that time in our lives. I was 37. Dad of 3 girls, from elementary to jr high. We got thru it. Only time will tell how it really affected the kids going thru all that, during their time.
I remember I was in my first year of college, on what I think was a Thursday, a few days before what was supposed to be our mid term break. At that point, one student caught covid from Italy, an elderly woman was the first to die from COVID, and there was word that Taoiseach Leo Varadkar was going to declare a lockdown from DC as he was visiting for the annual St. Patricks Day. The day was kind of going the way I expected before a midterm, though the excuse changed since people wanted to visit family or wanted to get ready to move back before the lockdown started. Me, I was skeptical, less and less people were going to the lectures. Then, my final lecture in Astrophysics came at 3pm and there was only 8 out of 55 attending. The lecturer came in, announced that there were no more lectured and that the state was going into lockdown the next day. Me and the remaining students stayed back for a few to chat before we went to a pub to what would be the very last time we hung out. I haven't seen them, nor did I ever find out their socials. The next day was the first day of "2 weeks to slow the spread".
I remember going to the gym and it was announced the nba was being suspended and Tom hanks got it. Then the next day the gym closed early and the lockdowns started. We didn’t know if it was the end of the world
I remember going to work and my boss asking me if I had internet at home. And being told that we would be working from home for the time being and that was over 2 years ago.
At the end of 2019 up until around the 1st week of February 2020 I thought and a few others thought that it would likely be contained to only a few countries (similar to other illnesses in the past). Was wrong. When it 1st hit majorly in March 2020, myself and few people I know had mixed feelings on how it would last. One said “maybe a few days/weeks”. Another said “a few months to 6 months”. Myself and a few others thought “1+ years or indefinitely”. The advantage of lockdowns were fairly positive. Letting nature heal, watching wildlife come out and closer. Shopping was fairly nice since you didn’t have to deal with huge crowds or pushy people and could take your time. While out exercising only a few people were out and they were fairly friendly. The disadvantages were there too. The lack of protection items, toilet paper, and cleaning supplies for months and months. The poorly ran business practices by many (not all) businesses which led to closures and longer lockdowns. People fighting each other for nonsense reasons. If there was harsher consequences in place since the beginning then we wouldn’t be in this situation. Moving forward, one nice to do is 3-4X yearly closures/lockdowns for about 3 weeks at a time. Maybe have a Financial system in place to help people and businesses.
Here we are three years later...world War three is a very real possibility, the economy is about to collapse, crime is skyrocketing, the global order that propelled humanity into its most prosperous time is unraveling, and it seems everyone has lost all empathy and retreated into their own bubbles. The state of the world now makes me deeply nostalgic for 2020.
1:57-2:22 that occurred in the early morning of March 27, 2020 also the part from 2:41-3:16 happened on Thursday March 26. They should have said March 26 not March 11 in that part.
I was living in a different parallel type of universe from most people. I worked in a hospital in icu and the “lockdown” didn’t really affect me at all. I was working OT every week, either going to work or sleeping. Once in a while I would see celebrities on TV complaining about how bored they were. I was sort of resentful of the people who were home collecting unemployment. Being bored would have been such a luxury. Most healthcare workers I know said they felt the same way. There were 2 different societies happening at the same time. It was a weird time.
I caught covid in March of 20, it caused a blood clotting disorder that led to a stroke that left me paralyzed in my left limbs and blind in my right eye
I hope u are doing ok. It’s a shame we didn’t take this more seriously. More people died in the US of this disease than any other country. That’s not random. It’s because people refused to quarantine.
I remember the news releases from Boris. I remember the reports saying it was ok. I knew it would last. I knew I’d be stuck. Somewhere. But I survived. I. Survived. Coronavirus.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 11, 2020-THE DAY COVID CHANGED THE WORLD-NEVER FORGOTTEN! NOTE: March 11, 2020 is NOT to be confused with 3.11 in Japan nor 11M in Spain, which by way, is the 10th Anniversary of one of those events above aside from the COVID-19 Pandemic.
@@jeddkoog9676 you are correct on that but I am also right as well in my reply. I was pointing out that your initial comment that you made 9 months ago was wrong. You got the date wrong in your initial comment here.
I was at work and I got home after the announcement was made and I was stunned. I couldn’t even believe what I saw at first when the game was suspended and then I just remembered the next day, the shut downs started
covid-19 has taken wrestling events away from me awesome movies gotten canceled because of this crap I said before screw covid this BS is not happening again it is back to normal for me & my fam period
Damn that's a selfish take. Nevermind all the people who died in the hospital lobby. All the people nurses who committed suicd or left the profession because of how terrible it was
Something big really happened that day... our brains, our emotions, everything seems different and Covid19 is only the peak of the iceberg. What a feeling.
I remember all this and the first C*VID 19 lockdown Friday the 13th March 2020. I was in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, the weekend before when two confirmed C*VID 19 cases surfaced in Calgary than Edmonton the same weekend than the lockdown happened.
I remember sitting in the cafeteria at school, when we found out school would be cancelled for 2 weeks. We were all so happy about that at the time... no one thought it would be so big tho
Hubby went to work and next day I went to work and was so shocked to see so many customers. Non stop my hands were scanning grocery items and we had to limit certain items. By the end of the day I was ao tired. Our children age 12 and 13 were at home, I coukd only home school them for maybe two hours
Here in the Philippines, former president Rodrigo Duterte announced suspension of classes and work for ten days on March 10, if I remember correctly. But on the 15th, me and my classmates back in eighth grade were absolutely shocked to realize the Pandemic meant the unofficial end of the school year. And from that day going forward, it became our longest vacation and isolation ever, followed by two years of online school. It was wild. At least there wasn't air pollution due to the lockdown. Starting on March 2020, everybody's lives felt like a disaster movie playing before their eyes. Jesus.
I remember going to get some groceries the day quarantine was issued in germany. it was empty. In broad daylight. It was like the entire city died. Light fog. I will remember this forever.
As it started as 2 weeks,it became 1,5 year. And now,infected by PHONE addiction after pandemic,i wait a summer to have time to BE FREE FROM WHAT COVID TOOK FROM ME! MINE TIME,NERVES AND 1,5 YEAR
I had a vision of the virus the moment the pandemic began. I survived it because I am blessed by the holy Spirit no pestilence will dwell upon me as long as Christ is within my heart and keeps me alive in this life for a reason. Now I am saying this on the first day of 2024. But my prayers go out to those who could not survive the pandemic. 🙏 If people could not survive the pandemic may be for a reason.

Yes ! My wife and 3 children are alive today because of the vaccine . Humanity dodged a Mass Exrinction event , thanks to the vaccine ! One wonders how humans existed for hundreds of thousands of years prior to vaccine production 🤷♂️ But I don’t ask questions , I just follow instructions … and thank goodness for that 🫡 I’m alive !

2020 truly felt like the end. The impending end of humanity, the apocalypse, or “doomsday,” if you will. With quarantine going into effect in March of 2020, and the battle with COVID-19, natural disasters running rampant across the country, increasing economic disparity, shrinking job markets, conflicts and protests/riots were happening worldwide, and a (now former) U.S. president who wasn’t doing anything to alleviate the struggles but instead spreading false information about the deadly virus and downplaying it- 2020 felt like the end of times. It wasn’t a 2012 Mayan calendar fear this time, but something far bigger and something based in fact. The world seemed to be crumbling before us and if you turned on a television and put it on any news station, basically nothing was going right in the world. You could practically say that the pandemic is my generations 9/11 (traumatic historical events - the events that happen in our youth which, in part, shape our worldview and, in turn, shape the ways we make decisions about money, careers, family and so much more). Hell, what a year that was. I was one of the privileged ones that got affected the least by that frightful year besides my school closing down on March 13, 2020 a.k.a Friday the 13th (that should’ve been a bad omen or an ominous red flag/warning of how things would turn out lol…) before the Spring Break even started, with us maybe coming back to school after the Spring Break (this was before we knew just how bad and awful things would truly get worldwide and that we would be gone a *lot* longer than just two weeks…, two whole years to be exact…), and I remember as we were all leaving and going home, I remember I told my friend at the time that I’ll see him after the break and he just said, “Yeah” or “Alright” in a whatever kind of way, and to this very day, even after quarantine finally ended and we went back to school, I never saw him ever again…, I don’t even know if he’s still alive today… Nevertheless, like for many others, it was a reminder that nothing comes for granted. Nothing is certain. It was a reminder that we need to work on developing acceptance to things we cannot change, let them go and become comfortable with uncertainty. It was a reminder that human connection is indeed the most valuable thing that we often neglect. It was a reminder that common enemies unite us. But do we need an enemy to unite us? I am grateful and thankful that my family members and relatives never ever caught the coronavirus/Covid-19 or were killed by it. The fact that 20 became 21 didn't change much about the pandemic, but we can all use it as a point of a mindset shift. Yeah..., the pandemic really showed us all how uncertain and fragile life is.
I mean..., for me personally..., so far the year 2023 has been the most "normal" year so far in the early 2020's and in this decade and I know that *really* isn't saying much at all lol... The global pandemic has finally settled down quite a bit to the point where we are able to travel places and go to huge events without having to bring masks with us (I still do wear a mask whenever I go out even though I'm not required to anymore...) and global inflation seems to have gone down as well.
Right? Here in the New Year, 2024.
It's been 4 years now
Same. This is the first time today while writing this message that this is one of the few viruses that are slightly deadly. We do not know what would be the next virus or maybe a virus hard to kill that could cause downfall to nations. Their would be one kind of a virus that are shown in movies that could be realistically possibly in the future and no one could survive that it will reduce the population down to 30% killing the rest 70%. And hopefully it will never happen.
Brings back the feelings I had around that time. Chilling stuff

I still remember when this happened, it felt like a disaster movie was playing before my eyes.
literally
They don’t call it predictive programming for nothing.
Everybody remembered when this happened. It happened two years ago
@Queen Cancerous The movie's not over yet. That was just the beginning of it
It was like the movie contagion
It wasn't the WHO declaring it a pandemic that got people alert, it was when the NBA suspended its season and Tom Hanks tested positive the same day was when people knew shit was going to go down.
Guilty. I remember being out writing a preview for one of the high school lacrosse teams I covered; they practiced late that night, right as Trump was speaking. The coach and I were joking about their team possibly not traveling out of state for spring break. Little did either of us know there wouldn't be a season at all. Even at that point, that Wednesday night, I don't think anyone had a real grasp of how different life would be within a week. I didn't.
I remember that! “ Covid done got Tom Hanks!”
Yeah this timeline is out of whack. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver suspended the season and Tom Hanks announced he was positive several hours before the Oval Office Address that night
Atleast we going through it now in 2023 everything is back to normal
@@darrenrock3387you wish
I still kind of pause to look in awe at full aisles of lysol disinfectant sprays, wipes, rubbing alcohol, and toilet paper whenever im at the grocery store.
The pandemic exposed weaknesses in our global healthcare infrastructure and response mechanisms. We need to learn from this and prepare better for future crises.
The pandemic affected so many lives and economies. My cousin's business had to shut down due to lockdowns and restrictions.
I totally agree! The economic effects of Covid have been devastating. It's such a challenging time.
Yeah, it's been tough for so many industries. The vaccine rollout has been slow too, which adds to the frustration.
Thankfully, my investments in the oil sector equity have helped me stay afloat during these challenging times
That's great to hear! Investing in the oil sector has been profitable for me too.
It's been 4 years now
It's crazy to that things happened in the last 4 years are more than the entire 2010s decade
Everything in the Modern World had Gone to Severe Decline until Now which Secretly Exposes the Inability and Ineffectiveness of the Republics of Today since 1917-1918.
Man, I don’t care what people say today about this pandemic, March of 2020 was scary AF!!! EVERYONE was scared. Like, what the hell is going on? The world literally stopped, and the movie Outbreak was next. That’s how it felt. Ugh!
Bro i was afraid to cough every one would stare at you 😅
What a very odd and scary period that was. Really seemed like a different time in life when we didn't know as much at the time. From the grocery stores be low on paper towels/toliet paper, certain foods, restaurants changing how they work, sports being done in empty arenas, people leaving work in mass, depression was really high for some people I had lost some to suicide and families/coworkers around me lost people to coronavirus. Pictures of bustling cities in the world looking so barren and empty of life such as New York as an example. Interestingly we had more people online than ever for online gaming and people buying vr headset to meet up with people. I remember vr headset being sold out constantly. I remember playing a lot of games I never played and making close friends online. It was also odd receiving money from the government that helped me start a business. Interestingly quite a few people sat around and rethought their life and started working on skills, new hobbies, deciding what matters most, leaving jobs for something better. The covid era is something I'll never forget
excellent synopsis!
Really were still in it. Were learning more and more of the damage covid reinfections are doing with long covid etc. 2022 saw a lot of excess death waves and way more disability then normal. It's just that not many people want to talk about it.

2020 truly felt like the end. The impending end of humanity, the apocalypse, or “doomsday,” if you will. With quarantine going into effect in March of 2020, and the battle with COVID-19, natural disasters running rampant across the country, increasing economic disparity, shrinking job markets, conflicts and protests/riots were happening worldwide, and a (now former) U.S. president who wasn’t doing anything to alleviate the struggles but instead spreading false information about the deadly virus and downplaying it- 2020 felt like the end of times. It wasn’t a 2012 Mayan calendar fear this time, but something far bigger and something based in fact. The world seemed to be crumbling before us and if you turned on a television and put it on any news station, basically nothing was going right in the world. You could practically say that the pandemic is my generations 9/11 (traumatic historical events - the events that happen in our youth which, in part, shape our worldview and, in turn, shape the ways we make decisions about money, careers, family and so much more).

Not sure why all the Muricans went nuts and lost their minds. Suddenly they were all going psycho and blaming lockdown. Every other country went through lockdown and their people didn't go insane. Anyone who got depressed and went nuts over having to chill at home for a bit obviously wasn't mentally stable to begin with. They could still go to the grocery store, go for a walk or a bike ride, it wasnt that big of a deal. Go to the store, get a ton of snacks and sit at home watching movies and chillen out for a bit, not that hard. Nature started to take over again without all the human meddling. Dolphins returned to places they hadn't been in decades maybe longer, nature strived without us.
The World War of 2024 Would be way worst😤
Its amazing I was in a freshman in high school when 9/11 happened. All those yes later I just became a mother of 3 when Covid-19 hit. To think I witnessed and lived threw a profound moment in history when I was a kid. And my children witnessed and lived threw thier own. So many bad things happen in the world and all we can do is pick the peices and keep going. We as human beings are strong and we can live and triumph threw the worst of times.

Yeah, for me personally, I was born in 2005, 4 years after 9/11. You could practically say that the 2020 coronavirus/Covid-19 pandemic is my generations 9/11 (traumatic historical events - the events that happen in our youth which, in part, shape our worldview and, in turn, shape the ways we make decisions about money, careers, family and so much more).
I don't want the new generation to go through this either cause families ain't families no more
@@whattheworldneedsiscreativ6421I don’t think it was as bad.
@@amazoring8269you’re crazy as hell of course it was. In some countries the unalived bodies were piling up on the streets
@@jrmetmoi Think of the plague, and the flu. Gets way more people per year. Not talked about as much. 9/11 had a long lasting impact that will last for history. Covid-19 is just a new one of the diseases, but with the modern social medias reaction.
I lived in Kenmore, WA near where the U.S covid started. It was insane that our grocery stores got completely bought out of food, supplies and essentials for weeks. It was scary. I was told to start wearing a mask at work. Busses shut down, streets were empty, stores were closed, businesses shut their doors.
It was craaaazy. . .
I was in boot camp. I didn’t even realize how crazy this was because we were already off the grid and the second week we figured out the whole country shut down. We were the first cycle with this. I wish it never happened
All hell broke loose that day
I was working at Home Depot Garden department and watching people buy bulks of water, toilet paper, Lysol, and etc. was insane to the point where the shelves were wiped out.
Then the long lines started because we were practically the few of essential stores open.
Life will never be the same after that day
It's over now mate move on.
I became symptomatic on March 11, 2020. We went all over trying to get care. I remember coming home and seeing the announcement on tv. It was bizarre. It was the last normal day of my life.
Was March 1st for me. Which is weird. Means it was REALLY early and I'm not in any huge travel cities or anything. So, I didn't think it was anything but a sore throat when I took my bf out for his bday lunch. Then the next day I felt so much worse and was like "must be strep".. then lost my taste and smell. I still wasn't thinking it was that dang virus, because again I'm not in any large cities. Plus they hadn't released the list of symptoms yet. I just though it was weird and my nose being clogged must be the reason I lost them. Then there was also the fact that I am in kidney failure. So I figured it would've hit harder than that for me, possibly klld me. And it was really baaad. but not hospital bad.
It wasn't until the last day or two I had it that I found out that the loss of taste and smell were telltale symptoms.
I SOBBED yelling about how I had taken him to lunch and a movie and probably infected people. He tried to comfort me reminding me there was no way I could've possibly known. But.. I still to this day worry if I had touched anything and infected someone. We still don't know where I even caught it
Oh really. What were
y'all's symptoms?
@herroyalsquirrelness8167
Give me a break! Because
it was reported loss of taste
as a side effect you decided
you had corona. Very professional.
I remember 3 years ago on 3/11/2020 COVID changed our lives
Crazy how nostalgic it is now. I was watching it from tv how school and universities were closing.
@@aldelvex234 I don't think nostalgic is the right word. For me, nostalgic is something that happened more than 5 years ago, but it really depends on how old you are. I mean, I was in high school then and I am still in high school now, so nothing really changed for me honestly. I might feel differently in 2-3 years, but I don't feel nostalgic about it right now.
I was living in Taiwan during this time and I remember watching the US descend into chaos in March while we had been locked down in January. Crazy times.
I was in the uk and they were still fiddling with their shoelaces on march 11th, we didn't lockdown until late march, which meant it went on for longer as we had to wait for all the death to slow down.
Yeah, uk didn't do a very good job of looking after its people back then (or now, to be fair)
I got pregnant during Covid, scariest time of my life. My daughter is 3 now n it’s just so crazy how scary the shutdown was in NYC.
I was pregnant too in 2020 during the Covid pandemic and my son is 3 years old now.
I remember the very end of 2019 just felt off then you had Kobe Bryants death in early 2020 which was crazy. When March rolled around it def felt like something outta a sci fi flick. Ill never forget the rabid customers during lockdown.
Literally. Never will forget
Never forget 2019-2020.
The vibes were like a Zombie Apocalypse
I Remember Wednesday March 11, 2020 The Day Covid 19 Never Forgotten!!! 3 Years Ago
The week of March 11-18 here in northern New Hampshire is what I call the twilight of normalcy. Nobody was wearing mask or social distancing, things were still open, but there was a general sense of fear, toilet paper was gone, store shelves were picked dry. People were trying to enjoy their last few days before things closed down. Between March 18 and 20, things closed down here one by one and then the worst time period of my life began, at first it wasn't that bad, first three weeks I was able to relax and work on art, catch up on reading. Then by late April 2020 I was miserable. 2020 and 2021 were absolutely miserable for me. Now I hear about people nostalgic for being trapped inside during 2020 and the mandates of 2021 and I'm like "why?"
Covid broke out just 4 days before my birthday. 🙁
That day I can't forgot that worst day
Many friends and Conworkers died it was so sad
I got nervous watching this years later, yet I lived it. Weird how that works.
Do this again for 2024 or 2025 and show how far we’ve come from 2020. Just seems like yesterday it started
I remember that on the eve of 12 March 2020 a message came from my school saying that exams are postponed due to novel corona virus and the schools are off till 31 March 2020
I'm thankfull to God that he got us through this. I appreciate life and others so much more, I even love my job and I never felt like that before.
I remember i was walking in the middle of an highway and there was no one i can see from miles ahead
Yup, it was like a scene from the walking dead or something. Strange times.
We need time machine
I remember Jan/Feb 2020 I was joking with my classmates, friends, and just about anyone really about the pandemic and the WW3 draft. A week before I heard rumors of someone at another local high school getting covid, and we discussed how much it would take to close school. 'Course, I thought it was farfetched that they would stop school entirely for a few dozen sick inviduals, so while I joked about school closing in the locker rooms, I never thought they were seriously gonna close it. The day everything shut down, (March 13th) I was walking in the hallways during lunch because I never really liked to be in the cafeteria during 9th grade. While I was in a corner, I overheard two people on the staircase above me mention how they officially closed school for "2 weeks". I immediately grabbed my phone and texted my Dad about it. Then, after lunch I went back to Algebra class, and he gave the class a packet to do while we were on Covid Break because the SOL's (Final exam) were coming. I wasn't planning on doing that packet anyways, and good thing too because I never saw him after that day and I was so glad too.
I was in 6th grade when Covid hit. And my school was already on Spring break, we were supposed to go back on the 15th, but in March 13th they sent out that email, and that two extra weeks became over a year. I had yet to return to my school until August 2021.
We were told we got 2 weeks off, but It sucks that I missed the rest of my junior year, plus senior. Didn’t even get to go to prom man.
Some people lost loves ones, fathers, mothers friends and colleagues, I'll take not having a prom over not having my parents around.
@@JuaniPodrido For real. Prom is overrated as hell, but that might be my social anxiety talking. And I agree, losing a father would be devastating.
Your parents picked the wrong time to conceive
Thank you for having a video that shows the date of the day the world really shut down.. I remember it like yesterday only because at the time.. first person to die was in King County, WA. I was an hour away babysitting my nephews with my mom February 23rd I believe until March 8th when I got back to Wisconsin. Day of arrival in Seattle, Plane was packed.. day coming back, I was laying down wherever I wanted...Washington was ahead of it like they knew what was going on with distancing and sanitizing everything anyone was touching. Reason for my comment is because you look this up, says March 15th which is a lie.. I came back on a plane after the first announced case from covid-19 in the US when mentioned in 2020 of February/March. Landed March 8th, March 11th the world really shut down.
Also I believe it arrived in the US in 2019 around fall because I remember reading everyone on my Facebook posting about being sick and having respiratory issues but Doctors said they couldn't find anything wrong. Remember feeling ill in November of 2019 when I rarely got sick up until than in my life. I'm 35yrs old.. I've been more sick over the years than I was before covid hit.
Your comment is the type of thing that needs to be documented for the archives
Still makes you shudder
I remeber seeing this in german news tv.
I just read a end of times book.
My first thought was "this is it"
I remember first hearing that school would be out for 2 weeks and me thinking that it was gonna be fine and that it wasn’t a big deal and I remember very clearly the last day of school before we quarantined, my friends and I were practicing wearing masks from one of my friend’s dad while waiting for the bus and thinking “how are we gonna survive wearing this?!” and then the 2 week break continued on and on while the whole situation was getting worse and I was actually starting to get scared and like was praying not to get the virus but in the end I got it 2 times during the whole pandemic but it wasn’t anything serious, it was only like a bad cold
When the COVID-19 pandemic arrived in Toronto, one of the first events or festivals to be cancelled was the National Home Show at Exhibition Place.
The National Home Show was ready to open and welcome visitors, when it got cancelled at the last minute. That decision was made when COVID-19 was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization.
The products which were ready to put on display arrived by the truckload. The concessions were just about set up, ready to sell food, drink, and other refreshments.
There were also the hundreds of the National Home Show's exhibitors getting ready to work.
I remember stranded at the bus stop for hours after work
Yahoo News, nice content keep up the amazing content
It happened on March 13 in my country. We were told that we had two weeks off from school and suddenly we never returned.

Sameee
2020 was the scariest year in the 2020s + Rest in peace who died from the virus
We all have bad feelings in that time in our lives. I was 37. Dad of 3 girls, from elementary to jr high. We got thru it. Only time will tell how it really affected the kids going thru all that, during their time.
Now here we are…. Hindsight is amazing
Everyone was gping crazy this year 😂
I remember I was in my first year of college, on what I think was a Thursday, a few days before what was supposed to be our mid term break. At that point, one student caught covid from Italy, an elderly woman was the first to die from COVID, and there was word that Taoiseach Leo Varadkar was going to declare a lockdown from DC as he was visiting for the annual St. Patricks Day. The day was kind of going the way I expected before a midterm, though the excuse changed since people wanted to visit family or wanted to get ready to move back before the lockdown started. Me, I was skeptical, less and less people were going to the lectures. Then, my final lecture in Astrophysics came at 3pm and there was only 8 out of 55 attending. The lecturer came in, announced that there were no more lectured and that the state was going into lockdown the next day. Me and the remaining students stayed back for a few to chat before we went to a pub to what would be the very last time we hung out. I haven't seen them, nor did I ever find out their socials.
The next day was the first day of "2 weeks to slow the spread".
I remember going to the gym and it was announced the nba was being suspended and Tom hanks got it. Then the next day the gym closed early and the lockdowns started. We didn’t know if it was the end of the world
Since when did Tom Hanks play Basketball??
I remember going to work and my boss asking me if I had internet at home. And being told that we would be working from home for the time being and that was over 2 years ago.
January 2022: it got worse.
How tho?

@@danhobson24 can confirm that covid isn't over. The only part that has ended is the measures part of it.
Man, i remember going to school days before it all happened. Monday came and the streets were almost empty.
What a year
I remember when we went on spring break and never went back in 2020
People died, yeah, and there was the lockdown in the whole world. But actually spring-winter-autumn 2020 was the calmest period in my school life
it was the absolute worst for me
March 2020- June 2020 was a lockdown that had 60% of Americans housebound.
good ol days comrades....
At the end of 2019 up until around the 1st week of February 2020 I thought and a few others thought that it would likely be contained to only a few countries (similar to other illnesses in the past). Was wrong.
When it 1st hit majorly in March 2020, myself and few people I know had mixed feelings on how it would last. One said “maybe a few days/weeks”. Another said “a few months to 6 months”. Myself and a few others thought “1+ years or indefinitely”.
The advantage of lockdowns were fairly positive. Letting nature heal, watching wildlife come out and closer. Shopping was fairly nice since you didn’t have to deal with huge crowds or pushy people and could take your time. While out exercising only a few people were out and they were fairly friendly.
The disadvantages were there too. The lack of protection items, toilet paper, and cleaning supplies for months and months. The poorly ran business practices by many (not all) businesses which led to closures and longer lockdowns. People fighting each other for nonsense reasons.
If there was harsher consequences in place since the beginning then we wouldn’t be in this situation.
Moving forward, one nice to do is 3-4X yearly closures/lockdowns for about 3 weeks at a time. Maybe have a Financial system in place to help people and businesses.
4 years later. What a blow but we survived.
I Miss the way he said CHINA
Here we are three years later...world War three is a very real possibility, the economy is about to collapse, crime is skyrocketing, the global order that propelled humanity into its most prosperous time is unraveling, and it seems everyone has lost all empathy and retreated into their own bubbles. The state of the world now makes me deeply nostalgic for 2020.
The day the world died
I remember that covid was so deadly the media had to constantly remind me how deadly it was....
I really like the atmosphere during this outbreak.
1:57-2:22 that occurred in the early morning of March 27, 2020 also the part from 2:41-3:16 happened on Thursday March 26. They should have said March 26 not March 11 in that part.
haha I started working as a RN in Feb. 2020. What a wild ride
I was living in a different parallel type of universe from most people. I worked in a hospital in icu and the “lockdown” didn’t really affect me at all. I was working OT every week, either going to work or sleeping. Once in a while I would see celebrities on TV complaining about how bored they were. I was sort of resentful of the people who were home collecting unemployment. Being bored would have been such a luxury. Most healthcare workers I know said they felt the same way. There were 2 different societies happening at the same time. It was a weird time.
I caught covid in March of 20, it caused a blood clotting disorder that led to a stroke that left me paralyzed in my left limbs and blind in my right eye
I'am very sorry. Are you doing okay right now?
I hope u are doing ok. It’s a shame we didn’t take this more seriously. More people died in the US of this disease than any other country. That’s not random. It’s because people refused to quarantine.
It's a respiratory virus!
Lies.
I remember the news releases from Boris. I remember the reports saying it was ok. I knew it would last. I knew I’d be stuck. Somewhere. But I survived. I. Survived. Coronavirus.

I remember sitting in the cafeteria at school, when we found out school would be cancelled for 2 weeks. We were all so happy about that at the time... no one thought it would be so big tho
I was at school that day, & I had no clue that this would happen
Hubby went to work and next day I went to work and was so shocked to see so many customers. Non stop my hands were scanning grocery items and we had to limit certain items. By the end of the day I was ao tired. Our children age 12 and 13 were at home, I coukd only home school them for maybe two hours
It was very miserable ,but a lot of on line workfreelanc started to improve and grow,
Here in the Philippines, former president Rodrigo Duterte announced suspension of classes and work for ten days on March 10, if I remember correctly. But on the 15th, me and my classmates back in eighth grade were absolutely shocked to realize the Pandemic meant the unofficial end of the school year. And from that day going forward, it became our longest vacation and isolation ever, followed by two years of online school. It was wild. At least there wasn't air pollution due to the lockdown.
Starting on March 2020, everybody's lives felt like a disaster movie playing before their eyes. Jesus.
I remember going to get some groceries the day quarantine was issued in germany.
it was empty. In broad daylight. It was like the entire city died. Light fog. I will remember this forever.
My birthday is March 11 and my ages always changes 😂

Was at university when they announced the world wide pandemic and classes were cancelled
Adam Silver has a lot of guts.
Hallelujah.
I remember the last thing I said to a lot of people was "see you in a couple weeks"
I was completely unaware of the COVID 19 pandemic when I was at college in warm springs Georgia.
I had a vision of the virus the moment the pandemic began. I survived it because I am blessed by the holy Spirit no pestilence will dwell upon me as long as Christ is within my heart and keeps me alive in this life for a reason. Now I am saying this on the first day of 2024. But my prayers go out to those who could not survive the pandemic. 🙏 If people could not survive the pandemic may be for a reason.
THE DARKEST DAY OF HORROR THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN.

Yes !
My wife and 3 children are alive today because of the vaccine .
Humanity dodged a Mass Exrinction event , thanks to the vaccine !
One wonders how humans existed for hundreds of thousands of years prior to vaccine production 🤷♂️
But I don’t ask questions , I just follow instructions … and thank goodness for that 🫡
I’m alive !
