Covid-🇨🇷 

When Costa Rica becomes the first country in the world to make it mandatory for children to be vaccinated, with about 1.5 million doses to be given to those aged five to 11—vaccination with apparently no serious side effects in this age group would arguably help stop infected children from spreading the virus to others.

Even if the US has approved the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine for 28 million young Americans, making it mandatory for children in red states would further polarize the nation, because a Covid-🇨🇷 template would face strong parental opposition in the name of freedom of choice and due to the risk of juvenile death.

COVID-995 

When healthy or asymptomatic members of the public, who suspect that they might have contracted Covid-19 but with no life-threatening or emergency conditions, are conveniently dialing 995, thus depriving those who genuinely need the service urgently from doing so.

How many lives could have been saved globally had there been fewer or no COVID-995 calls?

Covid-🇳🇿 

When New Zealand that was hell-bent to stamping Covid out has been humbled by the highly contagious delta variant, which forces the “hermit nation” to give up her zero Covid strategy in eradicating community transmission.

“Fortress New Zealand,” which has one of the strictest border rules in the world, has been breached, and with one of the lowest Covid-19 vaccination rates in the OECD, are Kiwis, who have been languishing in a year-long Covid prison, prepared to live with Covid-🇳🇿?

Covid-🇦🇺 

When Australia finally comes to terms that its zero Covid strategy to contain the coronavirus pandemic is a mere illusion, which is politically laughable considering that the country has the lowest vaccination rate among the developed countries.

Thanks to “dose sharing” with friendly developed countries, no one expects the land of kangaroos to fail in bringing down the number of Covid-🇦🇺 infections, thus putting an end to recurring lockdowns before the festive season.

Covid-☯️ 

When superstitious folks are gullibly led to believe that applying feng shui principles at the entrance of their house or office building would ward off the coronavirus or its deadlier variants—when the yin or negative energies of the pandemic outside would be neutralized by the yang or positive energies inside.

Thanks to Covid-☯️, a number of feng shui masters saw a golden opportunity to prey on the superstitious or frightened folks to grow their paranormal businesses.

Corona-Proof 

When your faith in the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob delivers you from the ravages of the coronavirus—when you live from a place of peace instead of fear.

Just as the faith of the old wise Daniel, who worked for King Darius, as reported in the Old Testament of the Bible, made him lion-proof after being thrown into the lions’ den, so too could you be corona-proof if you put your faith in the Almighty God.

Covid Exploitation 

When employers and factories use the pandemic as an excuse to unfairly terminate workers, or to close the workplaces by offering them zero compensation.

Guesstimate how many migrant workers in the Middle East and in Asia have so far fallen prey to covid exploitation by their unscrupulous employers.
