Hantavirus disappear after no one give a fuck about it

Overview

This meme features the widely used sad, dejected anthropomorphic ant character walking slowly away while carrying a stick slung over its shoulder with a blue cloth bindle tied to the far end. The text below the ant reads "Hantavirus disappear after no one give a fuck about it", making a sarcastic joke referencing the 2020 news cycle: hantavirus was briefly a trending public health topic shortly after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, but quickly faded from public discourse as people stopped paying attention to it, so it is portrayed metaphorically leaving dejectedly.

Origin notes

This meme was shared as an RSS entry from the Reddit r/Meme subreddit, with the original post title "No spinoff brochacho". It edits the pre-existing "sad ant leaving with bindle" meme template to add the hantavirus joke text, and features an imgflip.com watermark, meaning it was likely created using the Imgflip meme generator before being reposted to Reddit. It circulated widely in 2020 alongside other pandemic-related humor referencing short-lived public panic around lesser-known diseases.

This is a reaction meme using the classic Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas 'Ah shit, here we go again' template. It shows the game's protagonist Carl 'CJ' Johnson from behind, walking down a narrow alleyway between low walls. Large bold white text at the top reads 'HANTAVIRUS SPREADS', and the iconic, widely used meme line 'Ah shit, here we go again' appears in smaller white text at the bottom. The meme expresses widespread public exasperation and dark humor about the prospect of another new viral public health crisis occurring shortly after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, aligning with the original post's title referencing 'COVID season 2'.

This is a two-panel SpongeBob SquarePants reaction meme. The top panel depicts a large, intimidating, muscular green mutated monster with sharp teeth and red eyes labeled '*Hantavirus in 2026*', looming over a small SpongeBob who faces away from the monster. The bottom panel cuts to a close-up of SpongeBob, labeled 'People*', who has half-lidded eyes and a bored, completely unimpressed expression, showing no fear of the supposedly threatening virus. The core joke is that after living through multiple public health crises including the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent virus scares, the general public is no longer frightened by news of new potential virus outbreaks, to the point that even a future hantavirus would be met with total indifference, effectively being 'bullied' by the lack of public reaction.

This single panel meme features text at the top that reads 'I, who lived my best life during lockdown, hear about hantavirus:'. Below the text is a slouched Flork of Cows style stick figure wearing a face mask, gesturing limply at a 3D rendered model of the hantavirus particle, with text next to the figure that says 'C'mon, do something...'. The joke is rooted in sarcastic exasperation from people who preferred the low-social-pressure, stay-at-home routine of COVID-19 lockdowns, reacting to news of another potential pandemic virus as if inviting it to start the next round of restrictions already, rather than going through more uncertainty of returning to normal life.

This is a two-panel meme using the popular 'Woman Yelling at Cat' format. The left panel shows two cast members from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, with Taylor Armstrong angrily yelling and pointing, paired with the text 'It's Hantavirus' above it. The right panel features the viral Smudge the Cat sitting at a dinner table with an unimpressed expression, paired with the text 'Hentaivirus' above it. The joke relies on a common typo/wordplay where internet users misread the name of the real rodent-borne Hantavirus as 'Hentaivirus', a portmanteau combining Hantavirus with 'hentai' (anime pornography), implying that the cat (representing many internet users) is more interested in the lewd pun than the actual public health topic.

This is a 2-panel reaction meme using the widely recognized Drake Hotline Bling template. The top panel shows Drake making a rejecting, disgusted hand gesture next to the text 'HANTAVIRUS', to signal disapproval of the hantavirus. The bottom panel shows Drake smiling and giving an approving pointing gesture next to the text 'HENTAI VIDEOS', to signal he prefers hentai videos over hantavirus. The joke relies on the strong phonetic similarity between the words 'hantavirus' and 'hentai', creating an edgy, absurd comparison between two unrelated items based solely on how similar they sound.

This is a two-panel satirical meme using the classic 'ignored underwater skeleton' pool meme template. The top panel shows people in a swimming pool: an adult woman labeled 'PEOPLE' is happily playing with a young girl labeled 'HANTAVIRUS', while another young boy labeled 'IRAN-US WAR' is drowning and crying in the foreground, representing more sensational, short-term news events that capture public attention. The bottom panel reveals a skeleton sitting on a chair completely unnoticed at the bottom of the pool, labeled 'EPSTEIN FILES'. The joke criticizes how global public and media priorities are skewed, focusing on immediate, headline-grabbing events while ignoring far more controversial, consequential stories related to the Jeffrey Epstein case and his high-profile alleged co-conspirators.

This edited meme uses a popular template featuring characters from the 2019 *Joker* film and the *It* horror franchise standing on the iconic Joker stairs. The heads of both characters are replaced with illustrations of virus particles: the Joker in the red suit has a COVID-19 particle for a head, and Pennywise the clown has a hantavirus particle for a head. The COVID-19 character gestures as if proudly introducing the hantavirus character. The text above reads 'Covid-19 showing hantavirus around the workplace', paired with the original post context 'Still on probation but already causing problems' to frame the joke: it compares the relatively new, widespread COVID-19 pandemic (still in its 'probation' period as a public health threat) to a new, troublesome employee who introduces an additional problematic coworker to the workplace, amplifying disruption and problems. The background is a grungy urban outdoor setting with trash bins and littered garbage.

This meme repurposes a scene from the animated TV series *The Simpsons*, featuring Lisa Simpson standing at the front of a room, in front of a projection screen displaying her question: "Anyone notice when it rains that worms don’t even come out anymore. What happened to all of the worms". The image frames Lisa as posing a relatable, slightly absurd everyday observation that invites humor and casual reflection on small, unspoken changes in the natural world around us.

This two-panel meme repurposes the viral Flex Tape infomercial clip featuring Phil Swift. The top panel labels Phil Swift as "European ports" gesturing towards a leaking water container labeled "Hantavirus ship". The bottom panel shows Swift pressing a Flex Tape patch over the leak, overlaid with the text "fuck off we're not gonna let you pass", humorously satirizing European port authorities firmly blocking ships suspected of carrying hantavirus to stop the virus from entering their territories.

A cartoon meme set inside a bus with two animated characters. On the left, a character labeled 'People who didn't poop before leaving home' appears distressed, sitting slouched with a worried expression. On the right, a character labeled 'People who pooped before leaving home' looks happy and relaxed, sitting upright with clasped hands. The bus windows show a scenic background of mountains and a river under a sunset sky. A watermark 'GENIDO' is visible at the bottom right corner. The meme humorously contrasts the comfort levels of individuals based on a common everyday pre-outing habit.

This is a single-panel reaction meme. The top section has bold black text reading 'Your ancestors who died of shit related diseases watching you lick buttholes for funsies'. Below the text is a heavily faded, low-quality image of a pale man with a deadpan, confused, disapproving stare, merged into a soft cloudy blue background that evokes the afterlife. The core joke relies on dark ironic humor: ancestors died from fatal diseases spread by unsanitary contact with feces, while modern people intentionally engage in sexual activities that carry the same sanitation risks purely for recreation, leaving the deceased ancestors bewildered and judgmental.

This is a two-panel animated meme using clips from the 2007 DreamWorks film *Bee Movie*. The first panel shows female character Vanessa looking to her side, with an overlaid text that reads 'Bananas without the B is just pineapple'. Her boyfriend Ken is seen facing away in the background of the first panel. In the second panel, Ken turns around with a confused, annoyed, bewildered expression, while Vanessa looks down with a small, smug, satisfied smile after stating the absurd pun. The joke relies on wordplay: removing the letter 'B' from 'bananas' leaves 'ananas', which is the word for pineapple in many languages outside of English, making the statement technically correct but sounding nonsensical to most English speakers, prompting Ken's annoyed reaction.
