We hear from two historians, Mary Sheehan and Liz Crash, talking on the experience of the Influenza pandemic that peaked in 1919 through the lens of today's pandemic. They cover a broad area, with Mary touching on experiences of nurses in Melbourne including Valda Kelly, community support, comparisons to today; and Liz exploring history repeating, technological changes, gender, unemployment and resistance. Support 3CR's Station appeal here.  You can find Mary's writing at Living Histories. Here's some extra resources provided by Mary who you can contact at [email protected] :School of History and Philosophical Studies forum pageMy Marvellous Melbourne podcastsIn addition listeners can contribute to the Journal of the Plague Year, and online archive of COVID-19. You can find Liz Crash on Twitter, and more about her collaborative project, Underfoot, with Jinghua Qian here.
