40 Of The Funniest Coronavirus Jokes To Lift Up Your Spirits During Self-Isolation (New Pics)
The threat of coronavirus is weighing on every one of us. But no matter how hard it gets, there’s always a cold weapon known as a sense of humor. And some people aren’t missing a chance to spice up the hard times with killer jokes, viral memes, and deadly funny quips. All puns intended, of course.
Let’s take a look at these hand-picked comical gems compiled by Bored Panda, and after you’re done, parts one and two are waiting here and here. Don’t forget to upvote your favorites and share them with your friends. But remember to stay alone when laughing together!

Humor is a useful tool in helping to cope with cabin fever during a lockdown. Jokes, memes, and funny one-liners engage people remotely and create a sense of social belonging.
Paul Lewis, the author of “Cracking Up: American Humor in a Time of Conflict,” believes that jokes amid the outbreak offer a real shelter. “People usually make jokes about everything, but when news narrows down and has this element of fear, jokes are a way of temporarily triumphing over and repressing it.”
Bored Panda contacted Jennifer Kahnweiler, a speaking professional and expert on introverts, about other useful tools to cope with cabin fever during the lockdown.
Jennifer Kahnweiler suggests focusing on some benefits even if adjusting to not having a routine is hard. “Sleeping a little later (if you don't have little ones) and staying in your pj's, even reading in bed” are among the luxuries that otherwise wouldn’t be possible.
Pretty sure it's not just America. In Australia we had fire, then flood, now this. Thanks 2020. My husband told me last yr that he felt like 2020 was going to be the start of something awesome. I'll make some PSA's next time he says that, so we can all prepare.
Kahnweiler assures us that a sense of humor does help to fight emotional uncertainty. “Watching stand-up comedians, funny Youtube videos, and those memes can really do a lot! In fact, it's important for our immune systems and brings introverts and extroverts together.”
Suddenly introverts are considered experts on the field of "How to keep yourself from dying of boredom."
The common belief is that introverts should handle the self-isolation way better, since they’re used to being alone.
But Kahnweiler tells us that it’s a stereotype because everyone, no matter their personality, needs human connection. “There are memes circulating on social media about introverts being happy they get to be away from people amid the Covid-19 outbreak. But introverts like people!”
When thinking about whom you can write or call, Jennifer suggests considering people who are living alone, are older, and find it hard to pick up the phone. She recalls the moment her introverted client reached out to her to say that “he appreciated knowing that someone is thinking about him.”
If you look to the right you will see a large group of toilette papyrus, these spectacular species are rarely seen these days especially in such large gatherings. I feel so privileged to be one of only a few people to have witnessed a sight like this in the last two weeks.
I think I'd take dried grasses and clover over creamed corn any day, tbh. Creamed corn is disgusting.
Every press conference I see, with all of them huddled up shoulder to shoulder, makes me just shake my head.
Yes. It shows once again that politicians never do what they tell the common public to do. No gathering, keep your social distance, stay home.
Several of the people in the photo are known to have been in close contact with people ill with Covid-19. For a country with such great universities, with such super smart scientists the choice of political leaders is weird.
The majority of American voters are under-educated in the sciences, unfortunately. -Dr M
Load More Replies...Yeah so apparently the government is exempt from following anything the CDC says... pissed at my work right now for forcing us to not only gather in large groups, but to attend special coronavirus relief planning meetings with teams we're not normally in contact with on a day to day basis...
What's up with these creepy people surround the Americn president in these pics I don't think I've ever seen someone in Germany do this. They just look brainwashed. It the a Stepford person, White House Edition, I never heard of? Did they cluster around the other presidetns like that? I never noticed.
And Dr Fauci looks like those puzzles we did as kids: which one does not belong?
Load More Replies...Do any of those people have a reason to be there? I mean besides the compulsory looks of adoration for dear leader.
Dr. Anthony Fauci does in order to constantly correct the president.
Load More Replies...The caption is 16 people IN the photo not who was in the room.
Load More Replies...Typical do as I say not as I do. I'm surprised they are not all at Mar A Lago dresses in golf attire 🙈🙉🙊💩
Thoughts and prayers that one of them had the virus at the time of the photo.
My wishes are simple, for my wife to recover from her cancer with no significant problems. My kids to learn the importance of school. The trump administration to contract a disease to put them ALL out of commission for the foreseeable future.
Load More Replies...If the guy in the middle and the one second from left get it and die, the president is the Speaker of the House... [stay healthy, Nancy, by all that is right and good, stay healthy!]
I'm voting for Ruth Bader Ginsburg to be our warrior queen!
Load More Replies...Idk why they always have so many people in the background of whoever is speaking. 🤦🏽♀️
In communication theory, it's called the bandwagon effect: join us and get on the bandwagon! As if the concept of disease avoidance needs a bandwagon... -Dr M, incredulous skeptic *SMH*
Load More Replies...They are as bad as the UK. We have just let 18 million unchecked for disease onto our tiny island. We've now got the record.. Most deaths of any country in Europe. Brilliant!
Well, he can't read and they can't count. Welcome to the Trump administration.
If it takes a pandemic to stop Trump getting a second term in office, I can live with that.
This "gift" with numbers demonstrates why the individual at the lectern went broke in the 1980's isn't really worth much more now.
Oh no there isn't! Don't you know the rules? When or insipid leader is there, there is only one!
who else is counting the number of people in the photo just to make sure
Well Trump is in the middle,what do you expect? If they were seated we could with some luck call it The Last Supper? Couldn’t resist
Right. We can start by eliminating Fauci and Judas... I mean Pence.
It is also not a social gathering... Pretty sure they didn't suggest to limit the workplace to 10 employees.
Is that the real ceiling in the White House?!!! I thought the *resident remodeled everything, and reupholstered everything in gold! Since he always looks down at everyone, guess he's never looked up.
Have you ever wondered? His name is donald turnp but I think it should be donald ham
I am horrified how badly they are modeling what they say shame on them!
16 standing on top of each other. Take a lesson from the Brits when they give a press conference. is it really necessary to have all those people there like statues???????????
Has anyone noticed the presidential seal is missing from the lectern?
@Stuart McCulloch, maybe that's because a real President isn't in the room!

My birthday is coming up and I couldn't be more pleased. This year I'm going to do what I always wanted to do on my birthday. Absolutely nothing.
"no. Hooman is home and that means u must appreciate me, your glorious kitty god"
Corona is forcing governments to do what they wouldn't do to fight climate change.

I don’t want to see what will happen in May, It’s a matter of life and death for the poor doggy.
Only 2 months, he’s been on vacation since the beginning of humans.
Coronavirus has screwed school up: ap tests are take home, keystones are cancelled, sats are delayed, graduation and prom are cancelled, and the teachers are basically unable to teach anything for the rest of the year because of mismanaged 'cyber school'
Europeans: I'll call in sick. Americans: If I don't go I get fired and I'll lose everything I own.
Haha. For those of you who don't get it, The Sun is a scumbag nationalist excuse for a newspaper in the UK. It's owned by Rupert Murdoch (excuse my filthy language).
I must be lucky coz I have 3 buildings I can go in. The house, the shed and the enclosed carport.
Schools are still currently open in Australia. They aren’t even closing a school after a student tested positive for Covid-19. They were at a school camp on Friday with roughly 60 people and on Saturday symptoms started showing. They got the results last night and the school didn’t feel the need to notify parents and the federal government doesn’t think closing the school is necessary. Everyone who came into contact with the child up to 24 hours prior should be tested and quarantined, same goes for the people who came in contact with the teacher that was diagnosed 3-4 days prior.
My dogs are currently enjoying isolation with me. They are getting the zoomies a lot more often admittedly (and I have a decent garden fortunately). I've got A virus, not THE virus but no-one's going to want to trust my word on that.
What do you do when you don’t live with your other half? This is minor I know, but a girl needs a hug sometimes you know?
You're lucky to have that many screens. Of course, they're fall over at 2 am, but...
A doctor, a nurse and an epidemiologist walk into a bar, and they all say GET OUT! GO HOME!
We need humor like this to get us through dark times. Gallows humor serves an important purpose. I pity everybody who lacks a warped sense of humor.
In my opinion I think people should worry about the corona virus but no so much as in filling your whole house with toilet paper and hand sanitizer, I saw a report even on two ladies with a full cart of tp and wouldn’t share with a woman who wanted to buy just one pack. Masks dont work as the cdc already said(yes I did my research on that) they slip through the cracks around it and the fabric and it only helps if your sick so other people don’t get it not the other way around. People are just freaking out way to much when they shouldn’t have to. The flu kills more people. I feel that stores should limit items per person so that everyone has equal share. When they run out they can come back and the stores keeping track of how often those people come in. I hope that this new cure there talking about that’s helped with other viruses before that Fauci the US disease expert will stop the panic. Any other sources other than the cdc.gov in my opinion are fake news. Take care. #coronacation
There werre 400 deaths on friday in Italy. 800 on saturday. So, like, maybe panic a little bit, but don't be a moronic tp hoarder.

One of the managers texts us and says "If you can't be here in time to pick up your stuff today, I can bag up what you need from work and bring it to you." One of the IT guys responds with "Yeah..I left my desktop there. Be a dear and stick it in a bag for me. Ignore the college inventory number on it." LOL

Not sure about World of Warcraft, but in Italy, it was reported that Fortnite and Call of Duty traffic jumped significantly up, saturating the country's whole network. As for the company where I work (it's a Korean videogames company, not telling you which one for privacy reasons), there is an increasing amount of people returning to our games.
Load More Replies...Thanks to some Covidiots I learned that Corona beer causes the virus. (Silly human race) So being the one to try new things I decided to experiment with a cure. Now since Corona is a beer, and that Covidiot occupying the White House asked if ingesting disinfectants would kill it, I had a "💡" moment. You know the old saying that you need to fight fire with fire? The cure is on the market and widely available....lySOL beer. Mexico gave us the coronavirus AND the cure. Talk about ingenious marketing. Wow! I think I should be nominated for the Nobel. And Trump should be happy because now the cure isn't worse than the disease. BEER! (And chocolate) Later Kiddos. Gonna do some preventive medicine. 🍺😉😷
