Covid-🇲🇲

When the double crises of military coup and Covid-19 pandemic could push half of the population of Myanmar, one of Asia’s poorest countries, below the poverty line of $1.10 a day, by completely wiping out the progress the country has made in reducing poverty over the last one and a half decades.

With ongoing protests against the military rule in which thousands of blue- and white-collar workers have gone on strike with the aim of disrupting the economy and unseating the coup leaders, would Burma ever recover from the Covid-🇲🇲 crisis without a people’s revolution to kick the military junta out of the political system?

Mathematical Grawlix

A string of typographical and mathematical symbols, such as $#√(-1)+ and ∫eˣ = f(uⁿ), used in place of an obscenity, especially among geeks on social media.

Carnivak-Cov

Sputnik V for animals, which unprovenly generates antibodies in dogs, cats, foxes, and mink, by protecting them from Covid-19 for at least half a year, and prevents viral mutations from developing.

Just as Sputnik V was the world’s first registered half-baked Covid-19 vaccine for humans, Carnivak-Cov is the world’s first registered half-trialed Covid-19 vaccine for animals—a double first for Russia, as it pursues its vaccine diplomacy in the developing world.

Covid-🐼

When China wants to divert the world attention that it is responsible for the coronavirus pandemic, by extending its panda diplomacy in developed countries to mask or vaccine diplomacy in developing nations—it has donated planefuls of free masks to dictatorial regimes, and promises them first-priority vaccines once they are available.

Thanks to Covid-🐼, China hopes to make up for its lies and cover-ups in not alerting the world of the coronavirus pandemic earlier, which could have prevented millions of infections and saved tens of thousands of lives globally.

Trumpected

When someone is not corona-free, yet tells everybody that they are no longer contagious, or that they are immune from catching the virus again.

With his doctors withholding information to the public about his corona condition, the trumpected superspreader told his love-hate TV channel that he’s ready to resume campaign rallies.

COVID-13

A surge in infections and deaths on a Friday the thirteenth, compared to the figures on other dates, which led the authorities to wonder whether the most fearful or unluckiest date in the calendar in the developed world was a catalyst to the higher infection and mortality rates.

Whether COVID-13 victims suffered a double whammy or not is a topic of discussion suited for numerologists and astrologers rather than for scientists and politicians.

Covid-🇲🇺

When the island paradise turned tax haven, which used to earn its main revenue by exporting quality raw sugar, wished the coronavirus would suffer the same fate as the dodo—Mauritius needs tourists and tax fugitives to come back to revive its comatose economy.

How long would Mauritius—a lackey of China, which could easily or freely provide her with a million-odd doses of coronavirus vaccine to match her population size—have to wait before Covid-🇲🇺 became a reality?
