We&#8217;ve lost all perspective. The black death, which ravaged Europe with repeated outbreaks of the bacterium yersinia pestis, <a href="https://www.britannica.com/event/Black-Death/Effects-and-significance">killed</a> between 30 and 50 percent of the populations it infected — 25 million people in Europe — during the 14th century. That is a pandemic. It hung grimly over the lives and careers of Petrarch and Boccaccio, of John Wycliffe and Geoffrey Chaucer.
