- Warnings of a pneumonia outbreak in Wuhan, China, began quietly in December 2019. Over the weeks and months that followed, more information about this new form of coronavirus spread across the globe. For many Americans, however, the reality of the pandemic did not set in until March 11, 2020, when a confluence of major developments converged to cause a major shift in our way of life. One year later, Yahoo News has compiled an oral history of the events that ushered in “the new normal.”

I remember being told we were being told we were getting 2 weeks off of school. We definitely weren't expecting a whole year and a half
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?
SAME
@@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!
@@immortes I was scared that day remember the world War 3 thing?I panicked
God it’s so weird watching this 3 years later

"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.
Right? Here in the New Year, 2024.
It's been 4 years now
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
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!
Brings back the feelings I had around that time. Chilling stuff

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.
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.

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😤
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 remember i was walking in the middle of an highway and there was no one i can see from miles ahead
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 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.
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
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!! ❤🙏✝️

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.
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
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 that covid was so deadly the media had to constantly remind me how deadly it was....
All hell broke loose that day
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)
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 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.
I was 10 when Covid started….. I’m 14 now
The vibes were like a Zombie Apocalypse
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
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
Many friends and Conworkers died it was so sad
Crazy crazy times we’ll talk about to our grandchildren
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 Wednesday March 11, 2020 The Day Covid 19 Never Forgotten!!! 3 Years Ago
That day I can't forgot that worst day
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
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
We need time machine
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".
January 2022: it got worse.
How tho?
The vaccines 💉?
No it didn’t don’t lie
You are WRONG. Things were great then. There were 0 Active Covid cases in January 2022
@@danhobson24 can confirm that covid isn't over. The only part that has ended is the measures part of it.
Now here we are…. Hindsight is amazing
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.
Life will never be the same after that day
It's over now mate move on.
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
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 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!
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.
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.
Bylo to hrozný!!! Děsivý a šílený... strach,izolace..😢nikdy na to nezapomenu 😢
Turned out to be the most hysterical stupidity humans have shown in a long time
Agreed
There's more
PCR test and quarantine for 2 weeks.
In what way?
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.
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
I remember when we went on spring break and never went back in 2020
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
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.
Lord I had forgotten it was a Friday!
20 Million have since died from the "Safe and Effective."
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.
Still makes you shudder
The day the world died
What a year
Everyone was gping crazy this year 😂
I was at school that day, & I had no clue that this would happen
F*ck that day
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.
Thursday March 26, 2020 was REALLY the Day When the Covid Pandemic started. Get your Facts Straight. Please know that what I just said here is right.
@@danhobson24 Actually, that was the day when our nation became the global epicenter of 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.
Ehh it was more like March 13 2020 when things changed
It was like a nightmare and i'm so glad it's over
I remember my Professor telling the whole class that we might not see each other the following week because the simulations regarding the potential spread of the Coronavirus had shown distressing results, I believe the reports had come from Harvard but I'm not sure. Anyways, that very same day that he gave us that heads up we (the students) were emailed that the University would be shutting down classes the following day and would need to pack up our belongings from our dorms before the end of the week.
My birthday is March 11 and my ages always changes 😂
February 22 was the start for me when the market signaled a trend reversal
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 remember the email during college class, that classes were canceled
3/11 is real, in 2020
good ol days comrades....
So now we know who purchased all the toilet paper... I'm still using the same roll from 2019
CDC- centre for deceit control
NIH- national iatrogenic health
FDA should really be called
Fast-food and water administration
I still almost hoard TP, water & paper towels. It was the weirdest thing in my lifetime. I had H1N1 (swine flu) a few years ago, it was a lot worse than Covid.
this.. is like a intro of a movie
Then two days later we were off from school thinking it’d only be for two weeks when it really wasn’t…
I hate my life I hate my life
I really like the atmosphere during this outbreak.
I remember taking a vacation to Dominican Republic my trip was supposed to be for 1 month and end up staying out there 6 months cause of covid u couldn’t go out due to police roaming around the city nd if u would of got caught u was gonna 30 days in jail with 100 of ppl in there that might of have the virus 🦠 that year was the most horrible year for all humanity
“I’ll see you in 2 weeks okay?’
Followed certain sites and boards online, was getting information from my brother who is in a relationship with someone who still has family in China. Started buying mask, food, had cash in hand in Jan/Feb. In Late January most mask were already gone, still had plenty. Some in family thought my brother and I were crazy. Then came the lockdown. We had everything we needed. Just went out to see how crazy people were acting. Strange times. I will say as of this date there are whispers of a new virus, but we shall see. I wouldn't doubt it, this time it will be worse, there will be no money from government, more dead, tighter control, and there is an election coming. Sounds about right.
I miss pre covid life
Me too 😞

On April 11, 2020 that person said "20,000" you were clearly WRONG. As of April 11, 2020 we had about 2500 deaths in USA alone.
Unprecedented for the beginning decade.
Hopefully this pandemic is a warning and precaution for the future and a vision of human nature.
100 million dead in the USA 2020 to 2021.
This happened before and could happen another decade.
We go for home for a 1 week vacation back to our country working in china for 15 years. we never came back to china since january 2020 😅 been more than 3 years
Ahh china, they keep on giving the world gifts that keep on giving.
so.... this is in my brithday
This was on my birthday and it has been the worst 4 years of my life
it's been over for at least 2 years bro
Los mejores tiempos de forklicero
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.
I remember the Covid Virus being declared a Pandemic 3 years ago
It was so crazy back then. Going to the store and the shelves of food were empty. There was no toilet paper. There were no cleaning supplies available. The banks were so crowded with everyone including myself trying to pull out money. March 16. I got a text from my coworker saying that our job was shutting down, a few days later, my city went into lockdown and the curfew mandate was put in place. If you were out after 8 PM, you’d be subject to arrest unless you have papers to prove you you were traveling for work. This was even before the news media coined COVID-19, it was called coronavirus. It is crazy to think that the government considered it over last year.
Very Sad
I remember the last thing I said to a lot of people was "see you in a couple weeks"
I had people cussing at me because we had a mask mandate when doing business and have them screaming of their rights and how hard it was for them to breathe with a mask.Meanwhile, I had an asthmatic kid at home
Masks didn't work. The studies now prove that
Really gotta do your homework
Every thing they said about covid was bullshit
Hallelujah.
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.
I had completely forgotten about this virus. It's strange because I didn't hear anything about it after that week in March 2020
Adam Silver has a lot of guts.
I'm so glad Tom Hank survived
I remember 9/11/01 (can't believe it will be 22 years this September) and 3 years ago in March 2020 now we are at the end of May 2023 I was 12 when 9/11/01 happened and 31 when covid started
. 5-18-2024
Sunday... To this day
I have not met one
person that had this
virus and those people
have never met anyone
with cornavirus. No
one can explain exactly
what happens when you
are infected. So....
March 11 is my bday man
0:21 it’s gonna be just fine 💀
I Miss the way he said CHINA
