First of all, if you're feeling slightly nerdy, here's an article on medium.com on a visualisation of the global development of COVID-19. It involves a few steps (and reading the instructions in the Medium article), but then you can have the thing plot a lot of different developments for you. What makes these plots really interesting is that the numbers have been normalised to the population size - so we're looking at the relative case numbers and their development, not at absolutes. This really is way cool. (I got the link sent by a neighbour who was involved in the project, by the way. The things you learn.)
Another neighbour was involved in some of the translation work done for a current virtual exhibition in Nuremberg: "Menschen machen Stadtgeschichte" - People making the city's history. Scroll down a bit for the English explanation and link to the English version.
Even more from people I actually know: My colleague Alexandra Makin has interviewed my other colleague Gwen Owen-Crocker for her new blog series "Early Medieval (mostly) Textiles". Go check it out here.

The individual stories are rather short, so if you need a little something to watch and listen to now and then, go have a look. You can find the full list of videos here, and here's the very first one with the introduction for your convenience:
