The coronavirus is still spreading around the world. As are all the jokes surrounding it. Humor has turned out to be essential during these difficult times. Shared laughter has been giving us strength in adversity, helping us feel a little bit more in control when the future looks so heckin' uncertain. Most importantly, the jokes and memes about the pandemic bring us together and help us to feel connected, from one isolation pod to another.
So, Bored Panda continues to collect the funniest gags about the Coronapocalypse from around the Internet so that you have at least some sense of comfort in this tiring fight against our common microscopic enemy. Continue scrolling and enjoy our list, and if you finish it wanting more, check out our earlier posts on the topic here, here, and here.

Jokes aside, there are some good coronavirus-related news stories and lately, the thing everyone's talking about is the Oxford vaccine. The BBC reported that data from early-stage human trials of a COVID-19 vaccine developed by Oxford University has positive results. It appears safe and triggers an immune response. Trials involving 1,077 patients showed the injection led to them making antibodies and T-cells that can fight the coronavirus. It is, however, still too soon to know if this is enough to offer protection and larger trials are underway.
The vaccine, which is called by a name that could very well be a gamer's nickname, ChAdOx1 nCoV-19, isn't the only one that's providing us hope. The New York Times reports that researchers around the world are developing more than 160 vaccines against the coronavirus, and 26 vaccines are already undergoing human trials. Typically, vaccines require years of painstaking research and testing before reaching the public, but scientists are racing to produce a safe and effective vaccine by next year.
Until then, we'll have to make do with jokes and memes.
All the Karens are so offended. "You can't be rude to me!!! I'm only allowed to be rude to you!!"
Funny thing is - there was no rude comment as far as I can tell.
Load More Replies...has anyone found the part in the constitution that says it is their right to not wear a mask ?
That was actually a real good answer! You come here, you gotta wear a mask. If you are "medically " impedes to wear a mask, shop online!. If their major argument is that they don't wanna wear it 'cause they "can't breathe", then shop online. Nowadays you can get literally everything delivered at your doorstep.
I LOVE the internet shopping...shows up in 2 hours and I stay in budget since I'm not walking by little stupid things and buying them
So true Michelle! I never get out of there without spending a hundred bucks when I only went in to buy toilet paper.
Load More Replies...Also have no idea which constitutional right they think wearing a mask is violating. But the fruit licking is covered under the Interstate Commerce Clause which allows the government to regulate trade, including how fruit can be sold
Why is it rude? Only if the first statement of not wearing a mask is rude too. It's a very fitting comparison.
People want to be taken seriously, but that's impossible if what you're asking is to lick the fruit. Or not wear a mask. Whichever rocks your boat.
Load More Replies...The point of wearing masks in areas where the infection rate is low, is so it STAYS LOW.
male karens too. Its not just women but men who are like that too
Load More Replies...Whether that is the "real Walmart' social media or a spoofer - That is truth, not rudeness...in most stores with produce.
This one is gonna be hard to beat! It's rare that Walmart makes me smile.
I am gaining new respect for Walmart, or at least the person who handles their social media.
And this is why walmart is an epic fail like the liberal propaganda that was spread throughout the "Pandemic" Haha giving credit to a fake virus that never existed. do better walmart do better.
Too bad they no longer do this anymore. As a customer, defending an entrance worker, I was verbally assaulted by a customer who verbally assaulted the lovely entrance worker who asked the couple to wear a mask. The husband and I quote told me to "BITE MY A*S!!". This man, who's wife hid herself behind carts was too obese to even clean his a*s, got an Archer response from me, very calmly: "I would MOAB you if you were clean, but then you would leave your wife." He then asked his wife what a MOAB was and she said, "I don't know." This man proceeded to yell all through grocery, "I HAVE COVID!!" as he spit on his hands and touched everything. The employees were all too afraid to do anything. WHAT IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?!?!???
I liked the Costco video with the old woman who just sat down in the middle of an aisle because "they" wouldn't let her in w/o a mask. It was explained very politely that the store is private property and they are allowed to make whatever rules they so desire. It's just like "No Shoes, No Shirt, No Service". No mask = no service. What f*****g part of that do these "patriots" not understand. This is a health issue, it has absolutely f*****g NOTHING to do with your constitutional rights.
If I get coronavirus, I'm going to every anti-mask protest in the state.
These anti-maskers are the most stupid bunch of people ever. No reason the majority of them are trump supporters. I have no idea where they get off by saying it's against their constitutional rights... It's PROVEN health safety... f'ing dumb@**es. Also, there is not a single medical reason someone can't wear a mask for a short period of time while they're in a store if they're physically able to go out into public. These @**holes think it's about protecting themselves... it's about protecting the people around them. They are so self-absorbed that they don't give a c**p about killing someone else by being asymptomatic and coughing or sneezing on someone or something someone is going to touch.
There is literally no legit medical condition that would bar you from wearing a mask.
Wussy whining cry babies. We ALL hate wearing masks but we do it because it stops unknowingly sick people from spreading germs on everything and making germs harder to avoid.
Not a nice answer but an understandable one. Being nice doesn't always work.
There's an open letter from rich people asking their government to let them pay more taxes. https://en.mercopress.com/2019/06/25/in-an-open-letter-us-super-rich-want-to-pay-higher-taxes. NOTE: "The letter pointed out that fellow billionaire Warren Buffett has said he is taxed at a lower rate than his secretary."
Don't forget the KKK masks! When it's in the name of racism masks are fine
They don't go to hospitals but social media instead. Social media site are still the best address to treat your injured ego.
My view is that the American public has been conditioned (or brainwashed, it basically amounts to the same) to respond emotionally to political questions. This makes it easy to influence them in order to keep them occupied with emotionally laden issues, abortion being one example, while the ultrarich and the powerful mega-corporations quietly go about their business. Trump was/is a weirdo made-in-heaven president for them, a true master at distraction as he is.
Aren't they the ones that are usually against free access to safe abortions, too? And for capital punishment? And against free high-quality education for all? How about that?
/sarcasm = on/ We're not ignoring doctors and scientists, we're just saying that they don't know anything compared to that random strange dude on the internet that never left his cellar but knows all about 5G radiation, vaccinating mind controlling chips into our body and how masks are meant to shut us up. /sarcasm = off/
And we all know that almost all bank robberies go wrong because they usually faint before they get to the end of "Put the money in the ..." Several scientific studies have shown that an alarming amount of bank robbers have early-onset dementia because of a repeated lack of oxygen while practicing in front of the mirror. NO! Do Not Quote Me On That!
The Pandemic Team was created after the Ebola crisis. In other words, when politicians finally realized just how much modern global trade and travel contribute to diseases spreading worldwide before we even realize it. They understood how keeping an eye on rising disease spread, using reliably reported data to track them, statistics to predict potential paths of the spread, and sending trained professionals to help contain it, can help us either prevent—-or at least prepare for—-possible global outbreaks, since prevention is our best protection, especially if the disease has no cure/vaccine. You know, like COVID-19.
Dude. Don't confuse the covidiots with facts. It doesn't work. -from a retired teacher
LOL This is hilarious... they think it will be over by December? XD
That's the thing that all your smarts were stored on ! Put it back cause it already shows !
And that is why you are still around to shout your well-functioning lungs out, come next summer!
Influenza... the predecessor of Corona. Where they've been, Corona follows.
My husband is British, and has continually considered, then put off, going for US citizenship. Used to bother me, but now I’m glad. I sponsored him to come here, now he can sponsor me to go with him to Canada if our last chance to fix this mess we’ve been dropped in is totally flushed down the toilet in November.
Presidential plan: Let's stop testing for Covid. There will be no new cases and some day it will just have been disappeared. Even my son in law says so.
History says at least a year, probably two. Three if we continue being as foolhardy as we already have been. Just look up the 1918 Spanish Influenza and 1969 Hong Kong Flu to see how long they stuck around, how many times they mutated and started spreading around the world again, and how they finally abated all those years later.
at the end, the main actor will fistfight the virus in an epic final battle and they will end the movie with a dance
This sound like Jurassic Park after some carnivorous dinosaurs have escaped.
perhaps the American's could vote for a president who ensures health care for all...
I still would rather trust a rough estimation by a doctor more than the wishful thinking of a politician.
I’d just Stay The F**k Home™ until the rona is gone. Screaming is part of the fun.
The land of the free? With a dictator ruling by decree? It would be soooo funny if it was not so scary.
Look, I don't know about you all, but I'm keeping my masks after all this is over. You can mouth bad words at people, you don't have to smile, it's easier to fake like you're paying attention to people ...
I really enjoy wearing the mask despite the fact it gets really hot because I live in a tropical country but it's nice to go outside and no one recognizes you, it's a blessing, less talking
Would be better if it was believable. I mean, Karens? In a library? Where books and knowledge are stored? Knowing where the fiction section is? Or what it is? Acting like they can read and comprehend? Bah! Preposterous!
Who cares about an anime background? We're in the middle of a pandemic.
Don’t f*****g use a pandemic as an opportunity to price gouge. It will not end well for you. We have other choices. Using my own car: price of a gallon (or less) of gas. Walking: price of time and exertion, but no money.
All these people with gaps. If you insist on wearing a mask, wear it right.
If I'm not mistaken, one of these two is going to be killed by a predator pretty soon.
I am from Slovakia. We were first to wear masks in march. We have best covid rates per capita in Europe. Reopened again, just still wearing masks. Follow the rules. It works. It's that easy.
sadly Bashicka, even "easy" will be "too hard" for the lazy / stupid.... :(
Load More Replies...My country has 0 cases for almost 2 months now, although the last patient sadly passed away. She recovered from COVID19, but the aftereffect of the illness put her into a coma, which eventually caused her to pass away. :( Even though we don't have COVID19 cases anymore here, I wish that people would still be aware of the virus and not pretend that it is already fully eradicated (because IT'S NOT) but people keep on having mass gatherings and not adhering to social distancing rules. :/
My locql liquor store/bottle redemption has empty spots on the shelves and the bottle redemption has to shut down every couple days to play ctch up
Not sure yet but these are either sadly hilarious or hilariously sad.
Hey, does anyone remember the excellent memes at the start of the pandemic? Those were funny. These things are mostly just sad. A whole lot of really dull stuff about masks.
Why don't you create something great since you're so great?
Load More Replies...These are quite possibly the least funny "jokes" yet. I'm all for dark, dry or even a bit of gallows humor, but this is all just... unfunny.
"dark initiation ritual"? Wow, you all have really, truly gone off the deep end. Whose "ritual" are masks a part of? What sources are you using?
