Famines related to the pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019.

Twindemic and tripledemic (or tridemic) were terms used during the COVID-19 pandemic, referring to the possibility of a severe flu season happening alongside an increase in cases of COVID-19 during the fall and winter of 2020 and 2021, as well as respiratory syncytial virus in the winter of 2022. A consequence of a twindemic may be a mixture of two different infections in the same person at the same time. The term twindemic is a portmanteau of "twin" and "pandemic". __TOC__

The anthropause was a global reduction in modern human activity, especially travel, that occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in March and April 2020. It was coined by a team of researchers in June 2020 in an article discussing the positive impact of the COVID-19 lockdown on wildlife and environment. The scientific journal that published the commentary, Nature Ecology and Evolution, selected the topic for the cover of its September issue, with the headline "Welcome to the anthropause". Oxford Languages highlighted the word "anthropause" in its 2020 Words of an Unprecedented Year
