In late December of 2019, scientists in Wuhan, China identified a new respiratory disease and named it COVID-19. The subsequent outbreak of this virus was global, infecting millions and killing thousands. We recorded stories from around the world of the varied experiences of living through a global pandemic. We conducted online semi structured interviews using Zoom. The stories we recorded created a collection of unique perspectives on what it was like to live through the pandemic outbreak of the novel coronavirus.
