After going through hell over the past couple of years, courtesy of the coronavirus, no one is ready to deal with another virus, lockdown, and a pandemic.
But recently, people online skipped a beat when scientists in Russia ‘revived’ a 48,500-year-old ‘zombie virus’.

According to News18, the virus was buried under a frozen lake in Russia until it was discovered recently after global warming led to the thawing of the age-old permafrost (ground that continuously remains below 0 °C for two or more years).
The scientists at the French National Centre for Scientific Research had unveiled over a dozen archaic viruses along with the ‘zombie-virus’ that reportedly has the potential to be infectious and can therefore be a “health threat”.
This news left people shocked and scared too. But to cope with this Earth-shattering information, people flooded Twitter with memes and jokes.
