Outbreak Diaries is an autobiographical series of diary style comics that take place from early in the COVID-19 Pandemic through to 2021 when vaccines were being widely distributed. The story is told from the perspective of a household where both members were working in essential services throughout the duration of the pandemic. This story presents first-person experiences from a frontline worker and his thoughts and impressions of the changes in the world, more specifically Vancouver. This memoir is very personal yet relatable.
