The David J. Sencer CDC Museum COVID-19 Web Collection is an online archive focused on the experiences of people across the U.S. from coast to coast during the coronavirus pandemic. The collection places emphasis on the experiences of Black people, indigenous people, and other people of color. We track the pandemic from the beginning of a national shutdown in hopes of containing the spread of the virus in March 2020 to the ongoing distribution of COVID-19 vaccines in 2021. It also addresses special topics such as the impact of covid on arts and culture, sports leagues, the Olympic Games, and how the world plans to memorialize those we have lost to the virus. The collection finally explores the disproportionately negative impact of COVID-19 on BIPOC individuals from death rates to unequal access to COVID-19 vaccinations. The archive will be updated regularly with additional content
