A moment of science please

Title (Dublin Core)

A moment of science please

Description (Dublin Core)

This Instagram post was made by the street artist Velvet Bandit of their work depicting a chemistry beaker with cartoon style viruses inside. The message, "A moment of science please," is a play on a well-known phrase "a moment of silence, please" that is used in gatherings to honor people that have died. Hundreds of thousands of people have died from the pandemic and this street art is making commentary on pandemic deniers.
