People Can’t Stop Posting Corona Jokes And Here Are 40 Of The Best Ones That Made Them Laugh Then Cry This Week
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.
I was watching one of the SAW films through my home cinema in my first floor flat, and I get like, halfway through it and there's this *HAMMERING* on the door. I'm like "Argh!" and run to get the door to a rather concerned looking Policeman. Apparently, my neighbour thought I was being murdered (he was very rarely sober enough to talk, never mind make an emergency call - it must have been a perfect storm) so he called the cops. One quick explanation later and I'm back watching with the volume turned down a fair bit. Or. To cut a long story short (Too late! I hear you cry) something like this happened to me. lol
Your lucky someone cared enough to call the police. A lot of people would just ignore screams, not wanting to "get involved" or just "minding their own business". PS, I know you weren't complaining, just saying...

Two days later there was an article in the local newspaper about the auditions for the Halloween Haunted Field and Haunted House that was located 1 block behind my house. I'm guessing I'm not the only one to call 911.
Can relate. My dad is an actor too for radio. A drama on radio. So sometime he may be a bit too loud. My mum was concerned in case our neighbour might think they are fighting.... every other day... although kind of one sided... hahahah...
I am very jealous of this individual... (looking for VO gigs myself...)
I want one of those jobs. (moves from high-pitched whine to lower baritone) How do I get one?
Are you sure the sign is real? If I WAS (I am not) that is probably the method I would use lol
I had my windows open on a breezy summer night and heard a woman screaming fo help in the alley. I called the police and so did a couple of neighbors. Turned out to be the first floor neighbor watching a horror flick through his seriously loud, clear as a bell, sound system.
That's hilariousl But-- if you get a chance to see these productions online, and you are into theater, go for it! I've done it quite a bit this summer, it's been amazing.
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.
Yes, in these days you have to post [Start Joke] ----- post joke ----- [End Joke] followed by the disclaimer that this was a joke, that it didn't actually happen and that there's no way that that could have ever happened or is likely to happen now or in the future.
Between Google and Alexa I have no secrets. One of you knows if I've just farted. Honestly, I wouldn't waste your money on a chip too.
This. Why would the government (or Bill Gates) bother forcing a chip into your body ? You already BOUGHT a tracking device that you carry all the time and everywhere, including the bathroom and your bed.
Does she have sticky tape on her nails to look like she got her nails done xD
My niece once asked me for a kiss. "Sure, sweetie." Two inches from my face she open mouthed coughs on me.
No its not, welcome to the right to refuse, which every business in the U.S. has.
1. If the ship is sinking why is the band still playing? 2. I can't be sinking, I'm sitting here on the stern 150 feet above the sea. 3. This ship is unsinkable. I read it in the brochure. Fake media!!! 4. It's a hoax, made up by the sailors.
No it’s horrible for us too. We don’t like people, that doesn’t mean we don’t do stuff. Like go to restaurants, make money, go on vacation, chill with people we can actually tolerate.
Maybe the picture is off and they are standing in a tetrahedron formation.
except now they're saying (and it makes sense) that anything with a valve or vent renders the mask useless, because it doesn't block the particles from coming out or going in, so lawful neutral needs to be shuffled down to the evil level
Stand your ground law: Under certain circumstances, individuals can use deadly force to defend themselves.
NZ has closed its borders to tourists, and is imposing mandatory supervised quarantine on everyone coming in.
Correction: Trump ate everybody's marshmallows and then never explained the rules. (Edit: errant apostrophe)

You're asking for the universe on a stick there!

I no longer take her places. That's bad news for her. She doesn't drive. My car my rules.
Do you guys have any experience on where to buy (reusable) masks? Amazon and ebay have plenty, but most seem to be against dust/ pollution, which is hardly the same
reusable cloth masks keep your spittle in, which protects people around you from you. They're not designed to protect you from a virus itself. This matters because if everyone wears a cloth mask when out in public, there's much less of a chance of anyone infecting anyone else.
