The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic was called COVID-19. Some people quickly assumed a COVID-20, as if it were a movie or a software release.
 
“Breaking news: they just told me, don’t get Coronavirus, COVID-19, they will be releasing COVID-20 late September. Please, wait a little more and get the new one right after summer” was posted on Twitter by Episki on March 6, 2020. “Don’t rush to catch COVID 19 yet, they will be releasing COVID 20 in September!” was posted on Twitter by Noncho on March 7, 2020. “Please, don’t get Covid-19. They are releasing Covid-20 in September and it’s much better” was posted on Reddit—Jokes on May 2, 2020.
   
“Imagine getting rid of Covid-19 and then China releases Covid-20 S PLUS” was posted on Twitter by J’Nell Billiards on March 20, 2020. “Imagine surviving Covid -19 then China releases Covid -20 S Plus Max” was posted on Twitter by Angelo Nkosi on March 22, 2020. “When you’re not even done with Covid-19 and China releases Covid-20 Pro max #Hantavirus” was posted on Twitter by Abhishek Nishad (and others) on March 24, 2020.

China have released an advert saying, “Don’t worry about getting Covid-19…”
In September this year, they are releasing Covid-20 PRO…
Apparently, the upgrade is much better. That’s the one you want…
