Pop Culture and It's influence during the pandemic

 Over the course of time, there has been many pandemics. One thing that separates the COVID-19 pandemic from the others is the global access to communicate with each other, through social media and pop culture. Since the day quarantine began, people have been generating memes and other types of funny content to discuss the things happening. 

The photo on the right illustrates what it was like during the toilet paper shortage in the U.S. I found this meme to be funny because of how realistic it is. I remember when there was still a toilet paper shortage happening, it was trending on every social media platform: Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, etc. 




This meme is from a European perspective. I think it's interesting to see how other countries around the world view how the U.S. is combating  COVID-19. This meme is funny, because it also adds comedy to a realistic situation.
