When educators worldwide join forces to pose grades pre-K–12 Covid-19-related math questions, and to encourage students to have a shot at them, which aims at honing their problem solving skills and protecting them against illogical or irrational thinking.
With millions of people presently being vaccinated against COVID-19, the time couldn’t be more apt during this pandemic for math teachers and homeschoolers to promote the “Get Your Math Jab!” slogan to their students and children.

Get the Get Your Math Jab!mug. A humanoid robot that unprovenly supplies the daily random numbers of infections and deaths via the Ministry of Health (MOH) to the mainstream media, especially now that the majority of the population view each infection as a mere statistic, because it no longer matters to them whether it is a few tens or a few ten thousands.
Since Singapore started registering daily five-digit infections, to give locals the illusion that the infections data are meticulously collected from thousands of doctors islandwide, and to cut down on manpower, the authorities had apparently tasked a Singapore covidoid to spy on the population’s social media posts and tweets and pseudo-encrypted SMSes to formulate a daily figure on both infection and mortality cases.

Get the Singapore Covidoidmug. Short for “f*#*ing or fabricated math.” Fake numbers used by Donald J. Trump’s dubious lawyers to file his frivolous lawsuits, who claimed with zero proof that the ballot votes in those states where he lost were fraudulent.
The President-Loser refuses to concede defeat to the President-Elect, and wants to use f-math to enrage and encourage his diehard supporters to hold public protests nationwide, which would cast doubt on the legitimacy of the 46th President of the United States.

Get the F-Mathmug. When God’s “anointed” political savior of millions of white blue-collar workers and hundreds of thousands of white evangelicals says that two and two are five, there are no reasons why his diehard supporters should doubt or question about his brand of political math—when real statistics in politics are often concealed or concocted to boost the politician’s odds of winning an election or reelection.
For decades, it’s about “lies, damn lies, and statistics”; today, in an age of Trumpism, the new mantra for dishonesty is “lies, damn lies, and Trump’s lies.”

Get the Lies, Damn Lies, and Trump’s Liesmug. When mixed feelings or morbid musings about the coronavirus pandemic are abstractly or creatively depicted through computer art.
Digital artists think that covid dreams could serve as a form of therapeutic art for those who are grieving for their loved ones who lost their lives to the coronavirus.

Get the Covid Dreamsmug. Unrealistic or nonsensical word or story problems, routine and nonroutine, that may or not be solvable—however, most of them serve to humorize, parodize, or satirize mathematics.
One question from “The Bigly Book of Fake Math Problems” is the following: “At a Trump rally, if 10 coronaviruses infect 10 diehard supporters in 10 minutes, how many of these foreign viruses will be needed to infect 100 supporters in 50 minutes?”

Get the Fake Math Problemsmug. A dirty word among non-symbol-minded folks who are not keen, or find it brain-unfriendly, to learn the language of mass, length, and time; instead, they would rather pay the exam-smart or geeks to do the oft-tedious task for them.
The math guys and gals run the world, but most are clumsy in communicating their ideas to others, thus making them look like cold-hearted beings living in a platonic world of their own.
