Discussion
In a way telling the virus the 'bad' news actually should get them to work on more variants, so in a way Black Hat is encouraging COVID to mutate faster :S141.101.104.5 14:52, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
Anyway we don't get an answer to the question in the third pane. "They work for W.H.O.?". Hopefully this will be answered in a later comic. Inquiring minds want to know. --141.101.69.211 11:32, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- Huh? the answer is that they work for "COVID". the who question is more of a statement of surprise that COVID is a client (and isn't related to the WHO orgaization). 172.69.34.52 19:29, 28 April 2021 (UTC)
- That "WHO" might be an extra layer of jokes...--141.101.105.228 00:21, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
Shouldn't that be: "They work for whom?" 162.158.94.104 09:53, 29 April 2021 (UTC)
- "WHOM" as in "World Health Organization - Maybe" ? --141.101.104.149 22:53, 5 May 2021 (UTC)
