“A virologist, an epidemiologist and a scientist walk into a bar…” (bar joke)

Entry in progress—B.P.

“A guy walks into a bar...” is a typical form of what has been called the “bar joke.” However, during the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic, most bars were closed.

“A man doesn’t walk into a bar...,” “A man doesn’t walk into a pub...,” “An Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman don’t walk into a bar” and “An Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman walk into a bar. Those were the days” are related jokes.

I’m just kidding, they know better.

So, a virologist, and epidemiologist and a doctor walked into a bar.
Of course they didn’t.
