Road Trip by rosiekerr

Road Trip

The corona virus is on the move. My sincerest sympathies to those who are inconvenienced, worried, quarantined or ill from this thing, especially in China, Washington, Italy, New York and elsewhere. It is also creating economic havoc everywhere.

It is making its way across the US and was confirmed in Missouri today. The idea of it driving a bus, with shades, seeing the sights and barreling across Kansas at high speeds was just too much for me to pass up.

The computer-generated virus image is available on Unsplash.com, courtesy of the US Center for Disease Control (the CDC), who apparently contributes to Unsplash in its spare time (not much of that, these days). The scenery is from Unsplash. The tiny smiling "thumbs up," the bus and the Ray Bans are from cleanpng.com.

Thanks for visiting.
Yes, it’s quite sinister. It looks like a worldwide pandemic. Can’t understand if understated or overreacted

Well we all are just holding our breath with this disease. This is a great composite, depicting COVID on the move.

Very cleverly put together.

Well done!

Nicely done. It is very scary to think of how the virus is travelling around the world.

Can I use this picture in my class? They are coming back from spring break, and we will need a warm-up speaking activity to get back into the swing of things, and this would be a perfect intro!

I very much want his bus to break down but doesn't look like his road trip is stopping anytime soon. Creative shot nontheless!!

@vera365 Oh, sure! Help yourself. Sorry for the delay.
March 15th, 2020  
@vera365 You know, no need to get permission. Just help yourself! I hope my delay didn't create any lesson planning problems. :(

@rosiekerr Oh no, I showed it to them - everyone was so gloomy and grim the last two days of teaching on campus, this really lifted everyone's mood.
March 15th, 2020  
@vera365 I am just delighted. :)

Oh gosh, this is unnerving! So well conceptualized. I feel like I'm standing in front of it as I have not felt my age ever before!
