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.
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.
It's rather like declaring an hour a day when it's OK to pee into the pool.

Not wearing a mask during shopping with other like-minded morons? Yeah, that will thin the herd in no time. :D
right? the only issue is the workers are then put in danger
Load More Replies...Too expensive to disinfect the premises afterward. Can only work if anti-maskers only shop at stores owned by fellow anti-maskers who only hire anti-maskers—-and locate their shops on specified Molokai-type anti-masker islands (or something equivalent) with high electrified security walls so no one can leave until there’s a reliable treatment and vaccine. Then the island, and everything on it, gets burned to the ground.
Exactly! When the pandemic is over - burn it down!
Load More Replies...I emphasise that she specifically wanted this for people who don't want to wear a mask. Not vulnerable people who CAN'T wear mask. Even her standards, this is a new low.
It was to get people to debate the point for his show, he didn't agree with it. He tweets things like these to spark feedback, stats and viewers. Only morons and selfish fuckwits like Anne Widdecombe thought it was worth considering.
Load More Replies...Yes, let's lock all the idiots who refuse to wear a mask in the same place at the same time and throw away the key
You can even bait them by saying it's ma mask-free shopping place ;p
Load More Replies...The retail staff can be made up of Karens because " ThEy Don'T SeRvE Me ThE RiGhT wAy"
I think this is brilliant....its natural selection at it's finest. The staff wear masks, the idiots don't and soon they'll be less idiots
Except that the masks don't protect the wearer; they are to catch sneeze/cough/speech aerosols so that you don't contaminate the person several feet from you. Maskless idiots would merely spread the virus, and take it out of the store with them--to you.
Load More Replies...Brit Here. Most certainly an appalling idea. Great excuse for a cop out. Anne Widdecombe is usually very sensible but she got it wrong this time.
A main means of transmission is tiny particles floating in recirculated indoor air. If everyone is in an indoor place in one hour with no one masked, and one person has the virus, masked people in the NEXT hours are EXPOSED even with their mask. Unless you are wearing N95, your mask is protecting OTHERS more than you yourself. If we ALL wear one, we are all protected.
No no..they should. Then after they're gone everything us maskers touch will be contaminated! Great idea!😔
I always make sure to do the best I can to make the employees where I shop feel respected.
Crappy idea. How about the staff? Why should they be exposed to worse idiots than usual?
Nay, it would only release the virus at unforeseen levels! I wouldn't shop there any longer with all those germs flying around!
My son works at Walmart... it's sad what people will try to get away with while he is standing right there... and he's 6'2" and a BIG guy. But the point is perfect... since masks protect OTHERS more than the wearer, what about all the employees who don't want to be around maskless people? If they tried to make my son work during a shift like that, I'd pull him home immediately... I've got a few complicating factors so if he brings something home because of those idiots, I could die.
But, supermarket staff only started wearing masks once it was compulsory for the public to, seriously, so they probably figure they're immune anyway.
only if the staff can go outside for a break during the entire period and then the hazmat team can go in and clean up for smart people to go back in
So we give the staff a stage 3 gas mask and then pump saren thru the store. Problem solved!
Yes Jo! You are 100% right. Why should employee have to work under those conditions??
Well then they'd have to close for 10 hours to disinfect the joint, so, nope!
I suggest separate, self-serve markets for the mask-less. Employees to stock the shelves once and not have to go back in there. The stock won't last, but then neither will the maskless.
Or...it could be nature weeding itself. Let them kill each other, we mask wearers will still have a significantly lower chance of catching it by staying home during those hours. And make it so that the self-checkout lines are the only ones available for their snowflake hours. Better yet, make the time window so small that they’ll pull a Hunger Games to thin the herd even more.
Yes please! Let's have an hour of mask free shopping! Survival of the fittest! Proof of evolution!
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.

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

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.
