The spread of the coronavirus has got millions of people into a frenzy, and understandably so. Every day, we see news about how many people got infected and how many passed away because of it. But believe it or not, there are still those who try to find humor in the situation and to lighten up the mood on social media sites.
Coronavirus funny jokes
There is a lot of comedy made in response to the pandemic and the recent announcement of community quarantine across America. Although some were unfunny, weird, and very racist, some are absolute gold and can put a smile on anyone's face.
One of the most popular topics online this week was the short video of celebrities singing "Imagine" by John Lennon. On March 18, Gal Gadot posted the video on her Instagram account and it showed dozens of her celebrity friends singing, and even though it was done to inspire people during this difficult time, comedians did not waste any time in mocking the said video by doing parodies of it.
