Today marks the second anniversary of the beginning of the Covid 19 pandemic. From Codogno, a small town in Northern Italy, the infection spread throughout the world in a few days and left a very high number of infected people, dead and an immense and poignant pain along the way. Thousands of innocent victims, broken families, torn hearts. The anger at not having been able to do anything to stop this terrible tragedy has now turned into a great desire to live and willpower to make the world more beautiful and better.
This pandemic reminds us a lot of that of the Spanish flu of 1918-1920 which is also remembered in the second series of DOWNTON ABBEY and which will cause Lavinia’s premature death and Cora’s disease
