Pink month, pink eye

The designation of Arcturus as α Boötis (Latinised to Alpha Boötis) was made by Johann Bayer in 1603. (wikipedia)

You know, Johann Bayer.
The German lawyer and uranographer. 
He has a crater on the moon?
Ring any bells?

Entering year 4 with the pandemic. 
What were the Spanish flu people doing in year four?

Per wiki: 
The winter of 1921–1922 was the first major reappearance of the disease in the Northern Hemisphere, in many parts its most significant occurrence since the main pandemic in late 1918.
