On the 23rd of January, I sat on the fourth floor of a packed-out library, writing my dissertation.

My institutional email app pinged. Glad of the distraction from semiotic theory I read the news that we had all been waiting for:

The global economy seems to be entering troubled territories as the second wave of COVID-19 spread to countries which remained unaffected so far. The economic impact, now no more limited to China, is evidently slowing down other economies including the US economy.
