    I definitely heard about it on NPR in Christmas 2019. Not invalidating your experience, but I definitely heard about it on NPR. People were watching it

      Can’t say I’ve ever heard of NPR before today, might have been handy to know before I decided to go to the hospital over a large cyst on December 19, 2019, that’s probably where I got it.

      Anyways, from Wikipedia…

      “The World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a Public Health Emergency of International Concern on 30 January 2020, and a pandemic on 11 March 2020.”

      By then I had already got it and had already recovered. When I finally heard about it on the news, I was like ‘well ain’t that fucking cute, a day late and a dollar short’

        National Public Radio. They were discussing it in a foreign country and I think a case in the US. I knew about the disease before it was labeled a pandemic
