Social media, which allows us to keep in touch with distant friends and family, has now grown into an essential media and entertainment tool on a global scale.

It has been a year and a half since the world went into lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Until late spring, no one had the comfort of being protected from COVID-19 or the assurance that they had a reduced chance of infecting others until the vaccines were rolled out in 2021.
