Covid-🦇

When bats are believed to be the vector of the coronavirus to humans, which was first detected in a Wuhan lab in China, until a cover-up was no longer possible as whistleblowers risked their lives to report the rising number of infected and dead people to the outside world.

Fake leaders around the world never fail to scapegoat Covid-🦇 to rationalize the high number of infections and deaths in their own countries rather than because of their ineptitude or poor leadership in containing the pandemic crisis.

Get Your Math Jab!

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.

Christ and Corona

When Jesus Christ, the King of kings, allows Ms. Corona, the present “queen of the viruses,” to roam the earth in inflicting pain and suffering to seven billion-odd people, and in some cases to prematurely end the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, young and old, white or black, or rich and poor.

Although God could end the coronavirus pandemic any time, however, it looks like He decided not to get involved in any conversation or negotiation between Christ and Corona, or between Christ and Lucifer, for whatever spiritual reasons.

RCPL

Short for “Royal College Port Louis.” Once Mauritius’s premier boys’ secondary school that would take in the country’s top primary school “tuition-reliant, exam-smart” pupils, and would nurture future political and business leaders to run the volcanic island, where the dodo used to roam freely.

For decades, the day-to-day running of RCPL was like a sheep managing 1,000-odd lions—when the school principal was often someone who self-glorified himself, by attributing the number of high-school laureates the school produced every year to his “leadership,” when his priority should be to improve the school’s perennial mediocre 50⁺% passing rate to 90⁺% for high school students, based on the caliber of students being admitted every year.

Vietnamese Variant

A “very dangerous” hybrid of the two highly transmissible Indian and UK Covid-19 strains, whose infectivity, transmissivity, and lethality levels have yet to be unveiled by Vietnam's health ministry.

Arrange the following corona mutants in ascending order in terms of their deadliness: Indian variant, South African variant, UK variant, Vietnamese variant.

Naughtical

Saying no to almost anything, or giving zero answers to most questions—when someone is afraid of giving his views on most issues lest he might be taken advantage of by others.

Ali is such a naughtical person that no one wants to include him in their team—he's a complete liability rather than a commendable asset to the company.

#BuyTwitter #BanTrump

The hashtags used to raise money to buy Twitter in order to shut down President Trump's Twitter account, because his tweets arguably promote bigotry, hate, and violence.

Some billionaires in China (and even some anti-Trump governments) are keen to be part of the #BuyTwitter #BanTrump campaign, because they want to hit back at the 911 president, before his administration imposes economic sanctions against their protectionist practices.
