On the one hand, he notes, “The Covid-19 pandemic momentarily revived the sense that we are a global community, all in the same boat, where one person’s problems are the problems of all.” He notes that the pandemic made us realize that faith in the market was not enough to protect us. His bottom line is that we will either come out of it better or come out of it worse. But there was an even darker side to the Roaring Twenties. The experience of a pandemic possibly made people more suspicious of one another. But he cautions that we need to heed the lessons of history. All of this is a far cry from what Fratelli Tutti calls for—an “open world” marked by fraternity and global solidarity.

The first point to note is that the Spanish flu was almost erased from history. Shortly after that, in October 2020, he issued his prophetic encyclical Fratelli Tutti (On Fraternity and Social Friendship) under the clouds of virus-magnified tensions, anxieties, and dislocations.
