We’ve entered the Endgame in the movie that is Cornavirus. In a groundbreaking move on DIU Podcast, Jack and Gavin rendezvous online via Skype to host the podcast. This week the gang talked all about the virus and its updates since Jack mentioned the issue on DIU Pod 22.
Issues include the phenomenon of #CancelEverything – where everything we know and love, from the NBA to eating at restaurants, are being cancelled. We also talk about Ontario in a “state of emerency” and the travel restrictions placed on Canada. Trump refers to COVID-19 as a “Chinese Virus” and many people, including Jack, are pissed off. Lastly, we discuss the trend of panic buying and try to wrap our heads around why people are buying so much toilet paper!?
In the Canonese Corner, Jack teaches us some timely vocabulary words related to the episode. Follow along with the lesson here.
