Oh Taiwan CDC. They gave these diseases...personality traits? COVID likes: crowds, changing appearances, pranks, busy places and being lazy...
hepatitis is a boy band...who likes pork liver soup and tattoos...
lyme disease is a girl who likes wild animals and paintball and tropical weather...gotta give them points for creativity for some of these
zika likes...water, summer, the color red and wine tasting???? (hates mosquito repellant and bug zappers lol)
syphilis loves to be in love (yikes) and enjoys classical music & meeting new "friends"
the plague is very intense and enjoys tarot, the color black, rats & crows
Rubella hates measles even though they're childhood friends because they're always mistaken for one another
ebola likes gold jewelry and bats apparently
there are also cute versions of these?!
so this is actually a desk calendar that was designed by the taiwan CDC and i am definitely going to try and get a copy of this somehow
I was too busy gawking at these last night but these characters have little details. For example the boy band: hep A&E are spread via contact by mouth or feces so they have poop accessories. B,C,D have tattoos that represent a method of transmission or a symptom (e.g. needles)
My Chinese med term comprehension is poor but for Ms Syphilis her hair clips and ring represent initial appearance of sores, then the red dots on her outfit is the rash that develops later. Because it is spread by sexual contact of course there is a phallus on her corset.
You can order the calendar on Kingstone or there’s another link below from 博客來 https://www.kingstone.com.tw/basic/2025216715867/
Also no one is surprised at TW CDC for designing these because Kaohsiung MRT already has the KRT girls
This is also a country that published a series of books about Chinese history with the emperors and other historical figures as cats 
In all seriousness though @Taiwan_CDC does amazing work. You can check out their Facebook for more of these diseases related characters on fake magazine covers https://www.facebook.com/TWCDC/
@Taiwan_CDC also has a cute dog on their infographics about social distancing and other COVID related tips https://twitter.com/MOHW_Taiwan/status/1353857385048104960?s=20
Actually the cute dog is from the Ministry of Health! Another account with lots of info that makes medical terms easier to access and understand for people. @MOHW_Taiwan
To show how incredible the Taiwan COVID response is, look at their example of how they distribute info related to their contact tracing (not sexy or cute but equally important) It lists the places and times where a COVID case was out in the public https://twitter.com/Taiwan_CDC/status/1353588532212764672?s=20
What you should find sexiest are these demographics about how Taiwan provides daily updates about contact tracing, number of people in quarantine / surveillance and for an island of 23.8 million people there are SEVEN DEATHS from COVID
