How Black Twitter Turned The Corona Virus News Into Comedy! A day ago the first case of Corona Virus in South Africa was reported. The Health department reported that it is a 38-year-old male who traveled to Italy with his wife and arrived back in South Africa on 1 March 2020 and currently in Durban being monitored.
Mzansi has since been on high alert sharing tips and what to avoid until it’s cleared. But as expected, social media, especially black twitter has spinned what would be considered a serious situation into pure comedy. Some say it’s the way South Africans deal with difficult situations or coping mechanism.
The hilarious #CoronaVirusChallenge has trended neck in neck with the corona virus news. Check out some of the funniest meme reactions by SA black twitter below.
