Covido's definitions

Coronaissance

A bourgeois term for the next wave of the coronavirus pandemic to sweep across a county or country.
Rogue or right-wing inept heads of state are worried how a second, third, or fourth coronaissance would impact the “frontline worriers,” who have been slaving round the clock to protect their nations against the coronavirus and its ever-deadlier variants.

Covid-🏴 ☠️

When pirates or sea thieves have been kept busy figuring out how to take advantage of the surge in cargo ships passing by their coastal lands to raid and rob them during the coronavirus pandemic.
Thanks to Covid-🏴 ☠️, Somali marauders have had a boon time attacking a number of ships this year in spite of the economic pains brought about by Covid-19 at home—they sell their loot to buy food to survive the pandemic crisis.

A Liar-in-Chief’s immoral equivalent of “A picture is worth a thousand words.” When a caustic, narcissistic, racist, supremacist, or xenophobic tweet has the same negative or nauseating effect as a fake or frightening GIF.
In TrumpWorld, or among an obscene number of morally corrupt Trumpublican lawmakers, a picture is worth 280 characters.

Covid-🇲🇺

When the island paradise of Mauritius wished the coronavirus would go the way of the dodo, so that it could welcome back the tourists (and new tax fugitives) to revive its half-dead economy.
How long would the Dodo Island, which hopes that generous China would freely provide her with a million-odd doses of coronavirus vaccine to match her population size, have to wait before Covid-🇲🇺 became a reality?

COVID-🍦

When some mainland Chinese provinces are simplistically tempting vaccine skeptics or anti-vaxxers with buy-one-get-one-free ice cream cones if they get jabbed, as part of their carrot-and-stick strategy.
Is COVID-🍦just a quasi-ineffective primitive marketing gimmick to address vaccine hesitancy among some gullible residents?

COVID-🗿

When the natives of Easter Island realized that with closed borders during the coronavirus pandemic they could no longer depend on tourism for their survival; as a result, they switched to tapu, an ancient Polynesian tradition that is based on protecting their health, their lives, and their elders’ wisdom, with spiritual restrictions and shared prohibitions at its core.
In the long term, COVID-🗿could be a blessing in disguise for Easter Island—which relies so heavily on mainland Chile for food, and its 100,000-odd annual tourists for income—to be self-sustainable and waste-free.

Covid-🇭🇺

When Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán used the coronavirus crisis as an excuse to come up with an undemocratic act to grab unlimited political power—for example, someone who is spreading false information about the coronavirus could be jailed up to five years.
Under the cover of the Covid-🇭🇺 pandemic, the Orbán government could declare a “state of health emergency” whenever it wanted to crack down on the Opposition.
