This week brings the one-year anniversary of the declaration of the COVID-19 pandemic (March 11).
It got us wondering what we were all doing in the days and weeks leading up to the pandemic.
Some people might have been travelling, attending big weddings or concerts, eating out with a big group of friends, even bar hopping.
We’d like to know, what is one of the last things you did before the pandemic declaration and subsequent lockdowns and restrictions were ordered? Tell us via email at [email protected].
To jog your memory, we’ve included some of the last things our editorial staff did before pandemic-related restrictions were a thing.
