It is not only the pandemic caused by the pathogen, but also the fear caused by it. There is a lot of information flying around and fakes appearing out of nowhere. A society torn apart by various opinions.
Is this really a problem caused by COVID-19, and even if a vaccine is developed and a cure exists, will there really be a vaccine that can cure many of these problems? Human beings are weak and very fragile creatures. But it is possible to learn from the past. At the same time, we have an obligation to learn from the present and pass it on to future generations. It is necessary to leave behind information that can serve as a vaccine for the future, to convey the problems and how to overcome human frailty. In this work, the words "COVID-19" laser cut from transparent acrylic are placed on a medical vial that contains vaccines, etc., to express the transmission of information to future generations and the fact that it can be a vaccine for future generations. The letters and the word "COVID-19" alone carry a lot of information and can be used as a medicine or a poison.
