I Got My Covaxin Jab

The mantra printed on the badge or T-shirt worn by diehard BJP or Modi supporters, who proudly want to tell the world that they have 100% trust in India’s half-trialed vaccine, which is shunned by developed countries, but reluctantly used by a few developing nations that could not afford or get hold of other vaccines, whose citizens see themselves as guinea pigs.

“I Got My Covaxin Jab” is like the Indian equivalent of “I Got My Sinovac Shot,” with both Indian and Chinese vaccines yet to receive any WHO-approval.

Covid-19 Is Right-wing.

When the coronavirus has a soft spot for right-wing governments, whose leaders are often morally bankrupt and managerially inept, as their fake leaderships currently account for over half the world’s infections and nearly half the deaths.

Think of the US, Brazil, India, and Russia. The failure of these nations’ rogue leaders to contain the coronavirus pandemic arguably shows that “Covid-19 is right-wing.”

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.

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.

Putin Variant

The latest deadly Covid-19 mutant, suspected to be from Moscow or Crimea, is thought to be more infectious and transmissible than the Delta and the Omicron variants—the Russian “variant of concern” that some scientists in WHO had unofficially christened the “Pi variant” has apparently bypassed most of the protection offered by Sputnik V.

Unverified reports claim that dozens of dead and injured Russian soldiers in Ukraine were already infected with the Putin variant while on their way to invading their neighbor a second time.

Piastor

A pastor who likes to tease his geeky members to infer the biblical value of π from 1 Kings 7:23 or 2 Chronicles 4:2, and then to challenge them to explain why it differs from the mathematical value.

Guesstimate how many piastors or theologians worldwide could reasonably explain the discrepancy between the rational value of biblical pi and the irrational value of mathematical pi.

Sinovated

Being jabbed with China’s home-made, half-baked Covid-19 vaccine, which has so far received zero approval for use from developed countries, but instead is being donated to most African and Middle East countries as part of the country’s vaccine diplomacy.

With the rich nations hoarding the “branded vaccines,” most of the developing countries have no choice but to have their citizens sinovated rather than let them wait to be jabbed with their preferred vaccines.
