"If we do not heed this warning and work on vaccine equity, we risk a forever pandemic .." What does a "forever pandemic" look like? - 2nd Plague Pandemic: 13th-19th centuries - 7th Cholera Pandemic (El Tor): 1961 to the present - tuberculosis: 2nd millennium BCE to present

Uh-oh, this will be a weekly point of pride to keep this up. #NYTFlashback #twitterstorians
