Corona Luck

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.

Vaccine Incompatibility

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.

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.

Singapore Covidoid

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.
