I feel this needs a little context as some may not realize the significance of the items on the cart or the image. This is meant to show a Haft Seen. The Haft Seen is a traditional display of items signifying spring and rebirth. For Iranians, the first day of spring is also the start of the new year, Nowruz, and so it occurred during this crisis. Nowruz is meant to be a time of celebration and family, not being in quarantine in a hospital bed. This is meant to show doctors doing what they can to make patients feel more at home and bring what little comfort they can during a time that that is meant to be joyful.

This is so sweet

My teacher made a bet with the a special ed student in my class that if he did all his homework he could be called grim. As in grim reaper. He’s goth.

this one is really sad

The final stand

Nothing but the facts......

Is it weird that I've never heard of the watermelon rubber band challenge? I feel like I gotta know now

If only defeating the virus was that easy...

Secretly Snow White

We praise the nurses and the doctors. But don't forget about them. The janitors and custodians are working harder than ever to slow the virus spread.

Doctors, nurses, researchers... they are the ones who will save people in this crisis. But don't forget: janitors, utility workers, and all those who are keeping the rest of society functioning.

isolation is literally buy time

All forms of war some die from

This is sad but true

The explanation says it’s “—a group of doctors holding the arrows of the clock to wait for the vaccine”

People we need to stay home it’s only spreading and we the citizens are making it worse

Disinfect even if you aren't sick!!!!!!

The job of every healthcare worker -- spread joy and fight the virus!

ouch, that must hurt having that on your mouth

Home safe home

It is "Samani" we call in Azerbaijan, we plant it or decorate our rooms in Novruz- for celebration of spring arrival. As well as novruz symbolisez the new year in the past. Iran, Azerbaijan and other nations in the Central Asia celebrate this festivity since over 2 thousands ago... It resembles Pasqua-Easter in Western countries.

Staying in will squash the spread of the virus

The wind is blowing away from shore!

There have been a lot of charlatans telling people they have a cure (I don't know who the Iranian equivalent of Jim Baker is, but I guess some exist). There is no cure yet, just treatment for the symptoms and methods for keeping yourself safe until there is a specific treatment and/or vaccine.

What is the translation?

confused

Can someone translate please?
