here.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\u00bbCorona will become part of our history. By collecting items related to it, we are helping to ensure that this chapter of history is preserved and shared. I hope that the museum guests of the future will look at these objects with the same enthusiasm as I myself look at the museum’s historical objects from previous disease outbreaks, such as the plague and cholera,\u00ab says Bente Vinge Pedersen, historian and head of programme, exhibition & communication at Medical Museion.<\/p>\n
The objects will be displayed in a new exhibition, which opens on Saturday 12 June. The exhibition is called Corona will be history one day, too<\/em>, and it shows Covid-19 in a historical perspective using surprising and illustrative objects.<\/p>\nWe all have things we need to process<\/h3>\n
The Danish Minister of Health Magnus Heunicke’s cardboard sign showing potential infection curves is a classic example, according to Bente Vinge Pedersen. The minister held up the sign for the first time at a press conference on 10 March last year.
\n
\n\u00bbJust a few hours after the press conference, Medical Museion contacted the Ministry of Health to get hold of the sign that Magnus Heunicke had just held up, because it obviously had to go into a museum,\u00ab says Bente Vinge Pedersen.<\/p>\n
She realises there is a risk that people are so tired of corona that an exhibition about the pandemic may not be their first choice for a day out, but she believes the exhibition has a role to play, nonetheless.<\/p>\n
\u00bbWe all have have things we need to process about corona \u2013 and things that we have to reconcile. This exhibition can help us to do that,\u00ab she says.<\/p>\n
Test centre in the Town Hall Square in the 1950s<\/h3>\n
Bente Vinge Pedersen found it interesting to create an exhibition that shows how decision-makers were force to take shots in the dark at the start of the pandemic.
\n
\n\u00bbWe have now experienced what it is like to have to act resolutely and do something without quite knowing what kind of disease we were dealing with. The situation in March 2020 is reminiscent of the efforts to prevent the spread of cholera in Copenhagen in 1853, for example,\u00ab says Bente Vinge Pedersen.<\/p>\n
\n
Bente Vinge Pedersen is the head of the programme section at the Medical Museion and is the curator of the exhibition. She worked on the exhibition alongside museum curators Anne Bernth Jensen and Niels Vilstrup, conservator Nanna Gerdes, visual interpreter Kathrine Baastrup and designers Jacob Egebjerg and Valdemar Thrys\u00f8e, who were hired for this project.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Many of the strategies we use today, such as testing, infection tracing and isolation, draw on historical experiences from past diseases and epidemics:<\/p>\n
\u00bbWe have an example in our exhibition that shows how they tried to contain tuberculosis outbreaks with test centres in the middle of the Town Hall Square in the early 1950s and with X-ray buses that drove out to people,\u00ab she says.<\/p>\n
As Bente Vinge Pedersen puts it, we are witnessing history in the making:<\/p>\n
\u00bbSo although it may seem like this is the first time we have been the midst of a dangerous pandemic, the history of medicine shows us tactics and strategies similar to those we are using now.\u00ab
\n<\/p>\n
The first pandemic to exploit gene technology<\/h4>\n
Bente Vinge Pedersen believes that Minister of Health Magnus Heunicke’s cardboard sign is the most memorable corona artefact for now.<\/p>\n
\u00bbBut after some time has passed, we might remember Covid-19 for something completely different,\u00ab she says.<\/p>\n
There is also one element in the exhibition that was not part of any previous pandemics:<\/p>\n
\u00bbCovid-19 is the first pandemic in which we have been able to monitor all virus variants because we have developed gene technology to monitor the mutations. This was not possible during the Spanish flu epidemic from 1918 to 1920, for example. Gene technology is one of the hallmarks of our time, and it has affected the ways in which we have tried to control the Covid-19 pandemic,\u00ab says Bente Vinge Pedersen.
