[b] Please do not add posts referencing only this pandemic to pool #5960. To avoid flooding the pool, add only posts that reference events that happened because of the virus.[/b]
Some examples include post #3833846 (references the shortage of daily necessities due to panic buying), post #3838197 (Closure of Comiket due to COVID-19), or post #3819444 (Giuseppe Conte's speech in early March 2020).

Not every post with someone wearing a [[mouth mask]] should be tagged with this. The commentary, post, or source tags should make some reference to it.
