Social Media in a Crisis

The COVID-19 pandemic has gripped the world and completely upended 2020. People are either bulk buying toilet rolls or confused about why they can’t go to the pub.

At this moment it’s hard to know how to act as an individual – let alone as a brand on social media. There are as many people making memes about COVID-19 as there are people imploring each other to stay safe and stop infecting the elderly.
