People Are Challenging The Coronavirus To Fight On Twitter

The long-dormant @coronavirus account has been catching a lot of grief this week.

On Twitter, there's a @coronavirus account. It's been around since 2009 and has only tweeted four times — always about computer operating systems. But as the COVID-19 pandemic grew this week, people began finding it.

Don’t worry guys I got this. Yo @coronavirus STOP ✋

Twitter

Some people had a simple message for the virus.

Twitter

Others resorted to profanity.

Twitter

People got really mad at this long-inactive account that was created well before the current pandemic.

Twitter

Really mad.

Gym’s closed, bars/clubs/restaurants are closed, birthday plans cancelled, eating like shit at home, no sports until god knows when... stop ruining the vibes bro @coronavirus

Really, really mad. Makes you hope you chose the right account name for your Twitter, doesn't it?

Challenges were issued.

Public health authorities recommend social distancing, hand washing, and — in some locations — sheltering in place. But Ed had another idea. Ed, this is not helping.

Jakob made the coronavirus a sandwich — a knuckle sandwich.

And then there was this, for which we are very sorry.
