Which statement from the text best supports the idea that Pepys's experience of the plague is similar to our experience of
the coronavirus?
"The outbreak they knew of was
happening in the parish of St. Giles, a poor
area outside the city walls."
"With his own eyes, he saw houses 'marked
with a red cross upon the doors, and "Lord
have mercy upon us" writ there."
"Later that month, he wrote of deserted
streets."
"For Pepys, there were no Zoom meetings,
drive-through testing sites, or N95
respirator masks."
