As had been reported elsewhere in the past, there are many multiple strains of the virus with 'S' strain being the less deadlier strain and then the mutated 'L' strain which is the now more prevalent and the very deadly strain that has affected western Europe and worked its way to New York as well as some of the eastern regions of US.
Along with the actual physical ailments that the virus does to one's body, it is also considered to be affecting mental health as well. The senses that control taste and smell are momentarily lost when one is infected with the virus, but neurological damage may also be at play as well when one is affected with virus.
that has a link to a medical study. It had been suspected, but some scientists now believe mental issues can arise when an individual might be infected with some strain of the virus besides the physical aspects. Excerpt here and full article at link below.
-- In Wake of COVID-19 Pandemic, a Crashing Wave of Neuropsychiatric Problems?
But less attention, wrote Hong and co-authors Emily Troyer, MD, and Jordan Kohn, PhD, has been focused on the impact the virus itself may have on the human central nervous system (CNS) and related neuropsychiatric outcomes. The authors noted that studies of past respiratory viral pandemics indicate diverse types of neuropsychiatric symptoms can arise, including increased incidence of insomnia, anxiety, depression, mania, suicidality, and delirium, which followed influenza pandemics in the 18th and 19th centuries.
“Encephalitis lethargica is an inflammatory disorder of the CNS marked by hypersomnolence (abnormal sleepiness), psychosis, catatonia, and Parkinsonism. Incidence increased around the time of the 1918 pandemic,” said the authors.
During more recent viral outbreaks, such as SARS-CoV-1 in 2003, H1N1 in 2009, and MERS-CoV in 2012, there were subsequent reports of higher rates of narcolepsy, seizures, encephalitis (brain inflammation), Guillain-Barre syndrome and other neuromuscular and demyelinating conditions.
“Reports are already surfacing of acute CNS-associated symptoms in individuals affected by COVID-19,” said Hong, including greater stroke incidence in severely infected patients in Wuhan, China, along with delirium and loss of smell and taste senses. (A survey of UC San Diego Health patients treated for COVID-19, published April 12, 2020 issue of International Forum of Allergy & Rhinology, described the first empirical findings strongly associating sensory loss with COVID-19. The loss was temporary, said the authors, with taste and smell returning within two to four weeks of infection.)

I don't follow Daily Show compared to past years when Jon Stewart was the host, but Trevor does have some entertaining moments such as the clip that has some moments of the Arizona tour and Honeywell factory plant tour. The segment with the introduction and greeting of Arizona leaders is comical.
The best part is near end of the clip where the factory leader....supposedly the top manager of the plant encourages "orange tan face" to press a particular button that runs the machine assembly operations. "orange tan face" appears to have pressed a wrong button because the plant manager has to summon an employee to immediately come over to the control panel and reset things so the machine operation can properly begin.
When watching a videoclip or two of past N. Korea factory exhibitions, when dictator KJU was told to press a specific button (whether be one button or multiple buttons), he likely followed instructions whereas "orange tan face" can't even press correct button even when a manager points to exact button to press. Should another future factory tour showcase takes place and a manager is required to have 'orange tan face' press a button, the manager needs to put a dollar bill on exact button so 'orange tan face' can press correct button and claim dollar bill for himself as a reward because of pressing correct button. *sarcasm*
