Question

1. The artist is making a reference to Coronavirus disease 2019 in this comic, does the relevancy of the comic affect how you perceive it?

Answer 1

Answer: Yes, it most certainly does!

Explanation: I think that this is really funny because just a few years ago, we where freaking out over Bird Flu. Now we are freaking out over the coronavirus and have completely forgotten about the Bird Flu even though it still exists. So, right now, we could all get bird flu, but we are not concerned about that because now we are concerned about the coronavirus.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

In short, yes, it does.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very popular talking point, with the jokes being made out of it, in a way, having a "shocking" effect on the reader. (gallows humour)
