The novel coronavirus has given us all a lot of time to think, to be creative, to use our brains in new incredible ways.
And you know what this amazing brain thought?
What if we personified the virus (known on their passport as Last Name 19, First Name COVID) and gave them a backpack? How would they look? Would they be fun to travel with? Would you know that they were a virus if you just took one look at them while they were sleeping through their 13-hour layover at the airport?

I hereby give you the not-at-all definitive list of the kinds of traveller that COVID-19 would be if they were actually human.

The Country Counter

Speaks with an affected accent, has a world globe keychain, ‘accidentally’ says words in Italian instead of English.
“I’ve been to 193 countries now, how many have you been to?”
You look at the 26-year-old in front of you and wonder how they spread themselves over so many countries in so little time. As they tell you these wild stories about going to live animal markets, and hanging out with Tom Hanks, you wonder if you can really believe their stories.

Sex in a city. The family funhouse. Unattainable daydreams. Life in its nutty shell.
