HISTORY OF PANDEMICS

'The world is a global village' - this quote hasn't had a far more significant impact than now, in this uncertain time when an event that started in one part of the world has raised its tentacles and reached all the other parts of the world as well.

In the last 100 years, the outbreak of #Coronavirus is the eighth time that the WHO has declared a pandemic.

However, if you look back into history over the centuries, as the human species has evolved and developed, pandemics have always been around - some big, some small.

Here are two infographics that will take you through the history of pandemics and the death toll of each one of them.

As is evident, with more and more advancement in medical science, we have been able to control these pandemics in a better way.

However, the first step always is

#Intent and #Action. That is what makes the difference.

We can overcome this one too if our intent is right and our actions then back that intent.

You and I have to work on it together. It is no more about them, it is about us!
