The number of those infected by the coronavirus has surpassed 339k, but people aren’t giving up hope that we can defeat Covid-19, suppress its spread, and protect millions of lives. One of the weapons in this fight is humor because it makes us laugh and helps us forget our worries and recharges our batteries.

You’re probably working from home or are in self-isolation, dear Pandas. So we here at Bored Panda have collected some of the funniest coronavirus jokes to put smiles on your faces and to help you see the silver lining in this nasty situation. From toilet paper and hand sanitizer to self-isolation and social distancing, nothing is safe from being poked and prodded by internet comedians.

Don’t forget to upvote your faves and check out our previous coronavirus joke posts here, here, and here.

Because you know the minute a vaccine comes out for Covid 19...those anti vaxers are going to be all over it.

Of course, laughing during a stressful time like this can seem a bit strange. Or even hard to do. But we shouldn’t be afraid of laughing during a crisis. It’s for the best because it helps reduce stress and anxiety.

“Huddling around the radio, so to speak, and listening to the news reports just tends to amplify the scariness of what's going on,” director of the University of Colorado Boulder's Humor Research Lab Dr. Peter McGraw pointed out.

"And a bit of comedy—whether it be through your Instagram feed, through a Netflix comedy special, or calling up your friend who's pretty good at making jokes in the face of tragedy—is not only a good way to distract yourself from what's going on, but it's also a good way to delight yourself," McGraw said.

He explained that most of us are feeling a lot of uncertainty in our futures because of Covid-19. “One of the challenges that people are having is that the government is asking them to 'socially distance' themselves and that can make life a little bit difficult because one of the great ways to cope with fear and uncertainty is to lean on people that you care about and to communicate with others and to have a strong social support network."

Yep, now we see that workers who are actually essential for our society to keep working (nurses, garbage men, store clerks, cleaners etc etc etc) are so underpaid despite doing the most important kind of work!

Since going outside and socializing is now out of the question, we’re mostly left with online streaming services, YouTube, and social media to get our fix of humor. However, McGraw warns us that spending too much time on social media right now might be a mistake because “your social media feed is a mess” due to the coronavirus. That’s why he suggests watching professional comedy specials, funny movies, and reading hilarious books.

Get with Karen, she's negotiating it.______________ Update: As funny as it's been to laugh at Laura here, I want everyone to take a second to realize that the exact same thing has been said by Gary Cohn, who was until this month economic advisor to the president. "Is it time to start discussing the need for a date when the economy can turn back on? Policymakers have taken bold public health & economic actions to address the #coronavirus, but businesses need clarity. Otherwise they will assume the worst and make decisions to survive."______ https://twitter.com/Gary_D_Cohn/status/1241706009053331459

This is actually a good idea... it helps you to understand corporate culture and how they would address "disaster situations" in the future!

It helps you understand how much (or how little) they value their employees' health and lives. A company for whom you are just a "commodity" or a "resuorce" is not worth working for.

Sending everyone home is not to protect those specific workers, because most of us are all going to get this virus eventually. What this does is to protect all of us by slowing (not stopping) the spread so that we don't overwhelm the hospitals. So that WHEN (not IF) people get it and need medical care, they can get it. So, let's get that straight.

Exactly, when do you ever have the chance to help others by sitting on your couch and eating chips all day? Take the opportunity people and don't go out!

I think it is necessary, in the US at least, to proceed with November 2020.
