Coronavirus is continuing to spread across the world with more than 18 million confirmed cases in 188 countries. At the same time, however, the jokes mocking it are making their way around the globe just as fast. People on social media continue to roast the pandemic and by now, it's obvious that the savage jokes are here to stay. Until the vaccine, at least.

Bored Panda handpicked the best viral posts about COVID-19 from last week and after you're done scrolling through them, check out our previous lists here, here, and here.

As the number of deaths due to COVID-19 continues to climb, the world is eagerly waiting for a vaccine.

A leading pandemic adviser to the UK government has suggested that a vaccine against the coronavirus will be available in 2020 and 2021.

"In the last seven months since I have been involved, the progress is absolutely staggering and there are now first-generation vaccines," Sir Jeremy Farrar, the director of health research charity Wellcome Trust, told the BBC's HARDtalk program. "There’s probably five or six of them - from the US, from Europe, from China, from Russia - that are becoming available."

Despite the optimism, he also urged caution, saying the first generation of vaccines wouldn't solve everything.

Meanwhile, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the head of the World Health Organization, said at a news briefing that there was "no silver bullet at the moment - and there might never be".

Mr. Tedros advised people around the world to comply with measures such as social distancing, hand-washing and mask-wearing, saying: "Do it all."

"A number of vaccines are now in phase 3 clinical trials, and we all hope to have a number of effective vaccines that can help prevent people from infection," he said. "However, there is no silver bullet at the moment, and there might never be. For now, stopping outbreaks comes down to the basics of public health and disease control: testing, isolating and treating patients, and tracing and quarantining their contacts."

So it looks like our safety still depends a lot on our own efforts. And memes, of course.

My kid asked "Why doesn't she have to wear HER mask over her nose?" and I hugged the little darling.

Tell them it's Darwinism at work - survival of the fittest and while they are wearing their masks, the non-wearing bunch won't be around later to get in the way - win-win

Stupid mask shaming. I can guarantee some people not wearing a mask have done more research than you mask wearing zombies.

Good job teaching your children to be like you, rude and judgemental on sight.

But a cyclist not wearing a helmet only hurts the cyclist. A person not wearing a mask hurts everyone.

What a bizarre statement. We CLEARLY know about mask vs no mask. It's kinda been discussed a bit all over the world for most of 2020. You might want to pull your head out and take a look around.

way to instill fear and government control in your children.. You probably also think that the government should not have an opinion o birth control.

My god, you "control" people are astoundingly stupid! This is a health and safety issue, not a government control issue. The sooner Covid is shut down, the sooner we don't have to wear masks. Simple as that. But you retards are unnecessarily dragging this out, making this an issue it doesn't need to be, causing more job loss and business failure. Oh, and over 150,000 dead in the US alone. PUT YOUR F*****G MASK ON!!!!!

Or better yet, get a HAZMAT team to scrape off some of the wall of your lungs, and dump it into Trump's coffee.

It's odd how a whole genre has suddenly changed from action movies to satire movies. I'll never see an old American pandemic movie without laughing myself silly.

A long time ago I worked as a tech-weenie at at call center for Sony TV`s. One caller was complaining about her telly as she was a vegitarian and demanded to know if the plasma in the TV was animal or human. I had the speaker on loud when I explained.
