Through the autoethnography, in which the researcher’s experience is interrelated with the empirical scenario that she or he analyzes, the article reveals how the interconnected streams of memory are articulated in communicational acts, taking into account a contemporary traumatic event. The Covid-19 pandemic gives rise to reminiscences of a past that survived because of the narratives of another event, he 1918 inflenza pandemic (Spanish fl), in the childhood memories of the one who nowadays makes the gesture of telling that story. Moreover, the article presents aspects of journalistic coverage then carried out in Rio de Janeiro by the main newspapers and magazines, which also produce narratives guided by the interconnected streams of memory logic.Downloads
