COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019), officially named as SARS-CoV-2 and colloquially referred to simply as coronavirus, is a fast-spreading disease responsible for the largest pandemic of the 21st century thus far. It has prompted governments to encourage social distancing practices such as staying six feet (2 meters) apart, wearing masks when going out, and only keeping essential services open – which to the dismay of Chris, doesn't include conventions.
In March 2020, in the midst of the pandemic, Chris exhibited a juvenile attitude to the nature of the disease and the body's own workings. He believes learning about the symptoms would mentally tire him which would put him at a higher risk of contracting the virus. [1] Later that month, he endorsed watching the anime series Cells at Work to build one's resistance;[2] the cartoon depicts body cells as people, but given Chris's views on OCs, it would appear that he believes it to be a direct, literal depiction of what goes on in his body. On 28 March, Chris claimed the pandemic to be a sign of the Dimensional Merge and that COVID-19 was cured weeks ago in his fantasy world, also saying that My Little Pony characters were working to stop the pandemic problems in the real world.[3]
Impact on Chris's fantasies
Chris has claimed that this pandemic is a part of the merge used for evening out the population on both sides of the dimensional curtain before the merge. He says this virus will help remove those who are mentally and physically weak.
This disease had also made its way to CWCville in C-197 and some neighboring dimensions, but was somehow cured in all of them by mid April 2020. It is not known if weens and A-Logs have tried to crowbar a more severe outbreak into C-197, but Chris has so far ignored them.
Impact on Chris IRL
Due to it being declared a global pandemic, multiple rules came into effect, including but not limited to shutting down of all non-essential services. Though the definition of essential was very vague in the USA, conventions were labelled non-essential and were not allowed to open. This stressed our autistic hero as he could no longer go the places that had (somewhat) accepted him.
Chris couldn't deal with the cancellation of the one place where he found people who liked the same things he did and as a coping mechanism declared that Sonichu has taken over his body and his soul has left for CWCville to attend BABScon. Despite social distancing having been enforced in Virginia, this didn't stop Chris (as Sonichu) attending the Leftovermedia livestream with ween Noah and the musician Max Mandu, footage from the livestream clearly showing that social distancing wasn't in place.
Chris also said that a vaccine would be developed within two weeks from mid-march meaning all his knowledge about epidemics comes from Plague Inc. He then goes on to say that we have not applied what we have learnt from past epidemics to this one. During the SARS and MERS epidemics, we were not able to create a vaccine 3 months after they were detected, thereby proving how naïve he is.
Support for artists
Instead of paying his mortgage or various loans, Chris decided that he will be buying all the garbage that other Bronies have for sale online.
He begged his audience to buy his cards and comics so he can then give that money to Bronycon artists. When people called him out for this, he said the cancellation of Bronycon left these people with no source of income and that he was a helpful person Sonichu for buying their trinkets.
Chris probably doesn't actually care about the artists and just wanted all their products and gave his stupid reason to justify wasting money.
