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.

Get the Putin Variant mug.When a husband and his wife filed for divorce, or an unmarried couple decided to split, because both parties opted to get different vaccines or booster shots.
John who got Pfizer and his wife who got Moderna can’t wait until death to part ways—they told the judge that they can’t stand each other due to vaccine incompatibility.

Get the Vaccine Incompatibility mug.When superstitious 4D gamblers, who rely on the daily number of corona infections released by the authorities to bid for their “lucky” numbers, are angry because the number of infected cases has been rising to a five-digit figure in recent days.
Guesstimate how many 4D punters in Singapore have been in a volcanic mood since last weekend, who haven’t stopped swearing and cursing the ill-fated corona luck plaguing them.

Get the Corona Luck mug.When a country’s “zero Covid” policy leads to more restrictions and bans on both locals and aliens, often creating irrational fear and panic buying among them due to a shortage of fresh produce in wet markets and of basic essentials in supermarkets, including the closure of religious sites and hair salons nationwide.

Get the Covid Hostage mug.A PC term for the 2019–2022 era, where the social trends have shifted: no more wearing of face masks, no more vaccines and boosters, no more social distancing and quarantine, and no more tracking and tracing—a temporary global relief from viruses and variants until the next deadlier pandemic shows up.

Get the so corona mug.When profit-driven manufacturers would be launching a range of vaccines that aim to target specific Covid-19 variants, with varying pricing based on their infectivity, transmissivity, and mortality rates—for example, the vaccine for the more transmissible Omicron variant may cost less than the vaccine for the deadlier Delta variant.
With current booster shots proving to be semi-effective against Covid-19, manufacturers’ next creative move is to come up with designer vaccines to further boost their profitability.

Get the Designer Vaccine mug.An unofficial mantra that morally bankrupt or ethically challenged Trumpublicans and QAnonists should have taken heed of, but were too conceited and dumb to realize that those invisible deadly viruses and their variants were smarter than them.
That “Covid is not stupid” has yet to sink in among Trump’s patriots and diehard supporters is no surprise considering the relatively high rate of infection and of mortality in most red states—a positive correlation between stupidity and mortality is hard to discount.
