The pandemic has taken over the world and while health professionals and government authorities are working tirelessly to keep people as safe as possible, they are doing their best to make a difference as well. Washing their hands, social distancing, and creating jokes about the situation online, of course. It's one of the most popular coping mechanisms, helping everyone to handle their pandemic-related fears and anxieties. "The more we laugh at something, the less scary it looks," one board game developer has said.

From poking fun at our online orders to a moment of silence for our ever-worsening hairstyles, Bored Panda has collected the best coronavirus jokes this week, and for those who can't get enough of them, check out our previous compilations: part 1part 2part 3part 4part 5part 6part 7, and part 8.

Unfortunately, we can't eliminate stress and anxiety from our lives. Especially during these uncertain times. We can, however, develop skills to manage them. "A sense of humor can be an amazing line of defense when it comes to coping with stress," Elizabeth Scott, MS, who's a wellness coach specializing in stress management and quality of life, wrote in Very Well Mind.

"Developing a sense of humor about life's challenges is a great place to start," Scott said. "A sense of humor will help you to build resilience to stress as well as improve your overall physical and emotional health. It will also enable you to bond with others, look at things in a different way, normalize your experience, and keep your relationships strong."

So, if we're already doing everything in our power to get through the pandemic, chances are that joking about it will only make things better.

"When you're in the middle of a difficult situation, it can seem overwhelming. Taking a step back, however, and viewing your situation as an observer can help you see your situation with a new lens. This is called reframing—and it works," Scott said.

Truth. The real question is: "Are we going to do anything about it?" Step one would be to vote out Trump, Mitch, and the rest of the GOP come November.

No one will speak up, but all the protestors are white. You have people of color protesting against police brutality or women protesting against having equal wages and rights and then you have white people needing their haircuts now. As a white person, this is embarrassing, hypocritical, and just flat out disgusting.

🦅🇺🇸🌵🇲🇽🍁🇨🇦☘️🇨🇮🦅🇺🇸 Cut your own hair if it's bothering you so much. Who's going to see you if shelter in place and avoid contact with others. I cut my own hair and my son hasn't even noticed it yet. Look at this way. You're saving a bunch of money. When this is over, you can get the entire spa treatment with the savings.

truth...I was a burn icu nurse way back when. Working night shift a pt came in who had been shocked at work (Lineman) for the electric co. The supervisor who came in with him was nasty and making totally inappropriate comments about and too the pt. A few month later who ended up on my shift as my pt? Burn wasn't as bad as his staff was but in the opportunity to eff with him. I had to give a shot for pain and we have a huge syringe used to flush tube feed lines. Well you can also put a large needle on that syringe. The first time I came at him with it he nearly lost function of his body's fluids! I think he got the point (XD). I'm a witness more times that I say Karma is a b***h and she wears stilettos, smokes cigars and has patch over both eyes!!!

YES!! Nurses rock and, of course, all the doctors and the unsung staff. Woman on the right, go home and give yourself a haircut, maybe that'll convince you to stay home.

If you "need" a haircut that badly then do it yourself. I haven't had a haircut since last summer.

By right wing "logic" if you call it by the wrong name (ref: "clip" vs. "magazine") then you have no credibility and neither does anything you say.

There is no right wing logic, just a lot of sad, angry failures brainwashed into behaving like nazis but pretending like everyone else is a fascist. Extreme stupidity

They forgot the last point: Nurse Karen - still has a job and still is getting paid. Protestor Karen - lost her job and filed for unemployment. Cry me a f*****g river Nurse Karen.

then how has Protestor Karen money for a haircut? btw, a lot of doctors and nurses are facing deductions of their income, because the hospitals are not making their estimated profit.

Far as I recall it reopened once, and that wasn't really a reopening since the original park never really went into business. And then it ran successfully for years - at least long enough for people to get *bored* with dinosaurs! - before another incident occurred.

No. He wasn't. He's an imbecile and so emotionally-r******d that he can't even take responsibility or ownership of the things he says. Trump believes that personal integrity is a flaw.

This joke presumes that Trump can actually read and understand words that have more than two syllables. He finished reading the first word and then got stuck. Now he's just looking at it to try to convince people that he's reading.

Why order a sandwhich? It's easy to make yourself. Order something fancy at least to justify the insane pricing.
