Compare the Barbary Plague with COVID-19

This research paper consists of comparing The Barbary Plague with COVID-19 (news/media misinformation, blaming non-white people for the plague/virus, government disputes, economy, religion, etc). I’ve split the paper into 4 parts which have been approved by my professor:

1st part – research about the barbary plague
2nd part – research about covid-19
3rd part – comparison of both pandemics/epidemics
4th part- how covid19 has affected my life as a full-time student and full-time employee.
