Deltalized

To be infected with the delta variant of Covid-19, which conveys the message to others who contracted the virus earlier that they were “luckier,” because most vaccines responded pretty well to prior variants.

With new waves of the pandemic sweeping many developed countries with high vaccination rates, it appears that vaccination is quasi-effective for a number of deltalized victims.

Trump Radicalization

When the right-wing media are brainwashing hundreds of thousands of Republicans that Trump won the 2020 US presidential election by a landslide, but lost it because of alleged fraudulent ballots, and that they would need to help him fund his lawsuits to expose the illegitimacy of his opponent’s victory.

Thanks to Trump radicalization, the President couldn’t believe that his diehard supporters are so gullible to give their money away to actually help him pay his bigly debts, which would have taken him years to do so without the donations.

Maskopause

When some people at a certain age can do without a face mask, because apparently their immune system by then is strong enough to fight coronaviruses or their deadlier variants, which goes against the fact that adults or seniors are more prone to getting infected compared to the younger generation.

Guesstimate how many corona-proof people worldwide fall under the maskopause category.

Bluster Shot

When a number of children are eager to get jabbed so that they could boast to their peers that they were vaccinated and that they would innocently be protected from all coronaviruses and their variants, with near-zero worry of any short- and long-term side effects considering their age and still-developing immune system.

Politicians and pharmaceutical companies are counting on bluster shots to further open up the economy, and to boost their profit, respectively, with little regard for potential long-term negative effects on the health or growth of millions of children, who have quasi-zero say in their vaccination choice.

The Year of the Covidox

When Chinese at their annual family reunion dinner held before or during the Lunar New Year of the Ox are banned from screaming auspicious or superstitious phrases at each other to minimize the odds of corona infection, but are encouraged to play pre-recorded good-luck or prosperity messages instead.

In the Year of the Covidox, dozens of diners had their non-Chinese neighbors report them to the police for noise pollution, and for failing to wear a mask while broadcasting their deafening auspicious greetings.

To Mask or Not to Mask

The moral decision heads of state need to take due to a shortage of face masks in the market, as they don’t want to create a public panic that would lead to mask hoarding, which would endanger the lives of unmasked medical personnel and frontline workers.

With the pandemic crisis worsening, and not wanting to alarm the public by telling them the painful truth of a dearth of mask supply, politically vulnerable heads of state need to make up their minds whether to mask or not to mask the population—which decision would minimize the number of infections and deaths?

🤥₁₉

An emoticon that shows that the Liar-in-Chief or Pinocchio-in-Chief has unsurprisingly contracted the coronavirus due to his callous attitudes to protect himself and others from being infected.

How many 💀’s could result because of 🤥₁₉ and 🤢’s—the superspreader and those he had infected?
