Rewatching these at the end of 2022, is like rewatching a horror movie from the beginning. So terrifying and surreal. Making sure it actually happened. Last two years felt like the strangest Nightmare.
I almost feel like a bad person because I genuinely had a refreshing time for a marginally better part of 2020 because being non-STEM, my education didn't really asked a lot of me, I wasn't preparing for any sort of exam and on top of that, everything was going fine because the past few years before 2020 were not really great. For the first time, I felt that I wasn't left behind and could relate to others. Not a bit more than 2 years later and I was devastated in June 2022. I wish I could go back but that'd be not a good thing.
Don't forget seeing people dismiss the danger, be arrogant we have it covered, not take any precautions.. didn't need hindsight to know we could have prevented a lot of the worst of it if trump disband the response team, bring everyone back from abroad at once with no safety measures taken..
@@Marksman_12no I feel the same way. As a person in India, the educational system is so stupid and so demanding and it evaluates you on a bunch of things in such a way that even by some miracle it's useful, you've lost all interest in it. For the first few months I was just scared and disappointed that I couldn't do anything to help people, but it was the best year of my life after I realised to just focus on my own life. It was the happiest time I ever had because online school was a breeze and I could devote all my time to music. I just wish it had happened during tenth grade because everything came crashing down in 2022. I also wish we would go back to that time, just the lockdown part, because I would give anything for that peace back in my life.
@@almadrical8995 even *more fun* is the fact that healthcare had nothing to do with his choice to move to the US. The chance to have his own show was the driver of his decision to move to the US.

@Don Mega it's also because : it's the US, you can't live longer without service. Some of my grandparent are 92 and 96. One of my Grand-grandparent is 99, and the others + grand_uncle and more are in the 80's. i didn't get any deaths from them, except one due to cancer at the age of 70. 1/16 who are older than 70 are dead to to health condition. (i also lost an other grand-grandparent at the age of 98, but she just die because she was old.

With that president and his supporters, it's never their fault, always the others, and cared about a problem only when it doesn't suit them.
Funny how people laughed at a person gargling bleach because its absurd and nobody would do that and then the president recommends injecting disinfectants a month later.

Indeed, it's very easy to picture Monty Python making this sketch. "Sir, are you sick with the corona virus?" "the what?" "the corona virus" "nevah heard of it"
He didn't even show the clip of a father that'd gone through coronavirus testing and quarantine on Fox News. He was holding his 3 year old child while being interviewed and was constantly coughing throughout it and even took a drink out of his daughters water before giving it back to her to drink. It was bizarre and none of those Fox News hosts seemed to think it'd be a good idea to tell him to get his daughter away from him and not drink her water. They just let it all play out.
I'm from the further future, it is in fact the worst country and the current hotspot of disease in the world. It doesn't matter if any other country gets well because every future wave will start with an American. The world is doomed.
It’s coming up on a year since this video first aired. Almost half a million Americans have died and it’s crazy seeing just how naive we were a year ago.
It’s over half a mil death now. The point is Americans has been misguided from the beginning so much that subsequent damage cannot be controlled. How could you just wash your hands when the disease is respiratory one that spread through mouse and nose? Why don’t you advice people to stay at home and wear mask from the beginning? I know this is going to be bad when my professor told us to have fun going out and wash hands before spring break. Back then I know we were fucked
@@James-yz4cc Washing your hands help because whether you like it or not, people tend to touch their faces, or bring their hands near their faces (say when you're spooning food into your mouth). Say you touch something that someone else sneezes to, for example a handle bar on a bus, or that someone sneezed to his hands, but he forgot to wash it, and he touched fruits on Supermarket (which you, unknowingly touches 20 minutes later). Washing your hands makes sure that your hand is sanitary, and when you touch your food, or scratch your nose, you didn't inhale the virus.
@@MrWillypanda88 Sure. Why not put on the fucking mask on then if you are so worried about your hand touching your face. Should you advise people to wear gloves or masks instead of washing your god damn hands?
I'm Vietname and I'm really proud of what Vienamese government has done in preventing and containing COVID-19 epidemic. Massive thanks to LastWeekTonight for posting that cute song!
Also in Vietnam, the patients are treated for free and when quarantined, they are given food and other stuff too. For now, I believe no one in Vietnam has died and some even made a full recovery! Proud Viet person 🇻🇳
Sad when the United States supposedly fought a police action to try and stop communism in Vietnam because communism is horrible human rights violators and now we have an ultra capitalist system where the so called evil commies are treating their citizens better in relation to protecting them from a pandemic than the land of the free... You either die the hero or live long enough to become the villain... this is how I feel about my own country now

who said it can't just be a different context of "roaring twenties". I'd say the metaphorical tidal wave of shit that we have is fairly roaring if you ask me.
u can see that they make a rhombus using their fingers to point the surrounding of their Eyes, noses and mouth right. Maybe u didn't get educated about this Coronavirus but the virus can only be transmitted through liquid and on contact with open tissue like eyes, inside of noses and inside the mouth, touching the skin surrounding those part does not make you infected.
Hi all! I'm Vietnamese. I'm proud of Viet Nam when we prevent coronavirus. I really like this program and Mr. John Oliver. Thank you for appreciating Vietnam! Hope everyone safely!
Yeah...that's after many of his years doing test on people and reaping the benefits that provided him. The only reason why he spoke out was because he knew he was going to die anyway.
Totally agreed. Just that his name spells as "Li Weniang" with "Li" being his surname, so it's actually Dr. Li. Nevertheless, he shall be hournored and remembered for what he did

Bruh. The fact this comment is written in December 2023 where that Submarine joke and that Henry Kissinger joke aged very very well. John Oliver is the super accurate modern Nostradamus who had been a bird himself.
The song "Ghen Cô Vy" seems to have more of an impact than the national reach as people think. This may be because the media activities of the Ministry of Health of Vietnam have done the best to prevent the outbreak of COVID-19 in the community. I am Vietnamese and I am proud of that, proud of the good that Vietnamese people have done not only to help the country develop but also to make the world a better day. Thank you for making this song more popular. Best regards!
On behalf of the United States, I too applaud the Vietnamese Ministry of Health for utilizing modern trends to spread awareness on how to help better protect oneself from contracting the covid-19 virus.

One more thing about Vietnamese healthcare system: all corona victims have been tested and treated for free. Quarantined patients are also given free daily food and necessities.
And more people died at waiting the public health service inside the hospital than people dying over dengue fever. Its also in its third reform and they gave up on several estabilished free healthcare procedures puting them on private insurances. Which the average is roughly 60% of the average vietnamese income whereas the american counterpart is literally 8%
@@rickroll9705 You have no idea what non-subsidized private health insurance costs in the USA...NOT 8 %. My self-employed family would pay over $2000/month for health insurance, no government subsidy, and annual deductible over $10,000. Out of pocket + premium before the insurance pays for medical care? Well over $25,000 for the year. Middle class is getting screwed financially in USA at this time.
@@rickroll9705 LOL where are you from? I live in Vietnam and though the hospitals are overloaded, we still get full treatments on our USD 30 annual health insurance. People die of dengue fever here mostly because they're not very well-informed of how dangerous the disease can be and decide to stay home instead of getting hospitalized.
Watching this now has this harrowing feeling to it. John is talking about it like it's all-new. When he explained that it was called COVID-19 for the first time until now. The innocence in his voice is charming and soul breaking when you see where we are now
I really hoped the show had mentioned how expensive it is to get tested in the US for the coronavirus, and how much it may impact the effort to contain the virus compared to countries that tests people literally for free
Or how our entire economy is structured so that people have to go to work because they have no savings or social safety net and can't self-quarantine for their own safety (or the safety of others).
I completely agree. One forcibly quarantined man was given a bill for 4k after he finished. They also aren't talking about the terribly likely very high undercounts of deaths
That Vietnamese Coronavirus song will NEVER leave my head now. I don't really like modern club-style music. But man...that song is catchy. I suppose that was the point.
After watching this video I then went to my year 5 class and showed the Vietnam song and the dance. We then danced along. They are obsessed with it! They now know how to wash their hands correctly, so thank you!
Max Derp, seen as I am English and I teach in a British school it’s Year 5. Different schooling systems around the world have different ways to identify their classes or year groups. Not all about America you know!
The Werewolf Solution site should have looked like a legit site, let you put some bottles in your cart, and when you click checkout it should say, "You should not have done this."
Viet Nam only has 16 cases and they are all cured. As a Vietnamese, there's no word can describe how I proud of my country. Please take care of yourself and aware of this virus, it's really dangerous
DestielSnot Absolutely. His humour is brilliant. He and his team do a great job. Humour can be a powerful way to get people to remember your point. I travel a lot for work and many airlines now have humorous videos about safety at the beginning of the flight. You pay attention and you remember.
@@JohnZimmer-MannerofSpeaking So true. Most prime time news today just focuses on the most depressing and toxic parts of what happens in the world. Not saying that it isn't necessary at times, but it gets very old and it kind of drags you down with it. That is why I like John Oliver. He can discus serious topics in a way that keeps your attention and he still manages to make you laugh with his goofy metaphors and subject changes. In addition, he actually tries to DO SOMETHING about the situation if he can. Most comedians just whine about what is going on. Oliver takes things a step further. Like when he baught out a lot of peoples debt from debt collector agencies. Or when he actually went to Russia to interview Snowden. Or when he gifted Russel Crow`s jock strap to a Blockbuster in Alaska just to help them out. The guy actually tries to make a difference.

I love when a video clip ends and John says, “okay,” like he’s so frustrated with how wrong they are and proceeds to destroy whatever argument they made
@@laladu6490 it's a piece of slang, a relatively new one, meaning that a song is very catchy and enjoyable to listen to(similar expressions being "it bangs", "it's a banger", etc.). it's just pretty funny to hear a middle-aged british man say it, considering it's a very new and sort of Gen Z thing to say.
@@porqupyne1493 thank you! I got it. So the word is supposed to be popular among just young American people and now a British middle-aged man says it, right?

As a person who has been hearing about the coronavirus but haven’t had the situation explained to me properly and can only find articles telling me I already died of coronavirus, I’m very glad to see this in my recommendations.
Check out Dr.Mike's breakdown of the disease and what to expect. He does a great job explaining it
So how's the afterlife?
Don’t sweat it. I died at bowling green. Hasn’t stopped me yet.
check the WHO website (world health organization). A lot of important info there.
I already died in 01 from anthrax, 02 from west Nile, 03 SARS, 04 from bird flu, and after that it was Ebola, E. coli, swine flu, Zika.... god it never ends.

The song originally called "Ghen" (= Jealous) in Vietnam and was among top hits in 2017. Became a project with the help of the author of the song + the two original singers of the song and the Ministry of Health in Vietnam in order to make a catchy yet effective song that can remind citizens, especially the millennials, about maintaining hygiene as well as preventing Covid-19 from spreading.

@Don Mega it's also because : it's the US, you can't live longer without service. Some of my grandparent are 92 and 96. One of my Grand-grandparent is 99, and the others + grand_uncle and more are in the 80's. i didn't get any deaths from them, except one due to cancer at the age of 70. 1/16 who are older than 70 are dead to to health condition. (i also lost an other grand-grandparent at the age of 98, but she just die because she was old. So Yeah, US is maybe a great country, but not in in term of living condition whil having high standards. (if you ask, i live in Europe)

He didn't even show the clip of a father that'd gone through coronavirus testing and quarantine on Fox News. He was holding his 3 year old child while being interviewed and was constantly coughing throughout it and even took a drink out of his daughters water before giving it back to her to drink. It was bizarre and none of those Fox News hosts seemed to think it'd be a good idea to tell him to get his daughter away from him and not drink her water. They just let it all play out.

@@James-yz4cc Washing your hands help because whether you like it or not, people tend to touch their faces, or bring their hands near their faces (say when you're spooning food into your mouth). Say you touch something that someone else sneezes to, for example a handle bar on a bus, or that someone sneezed to his hands, but he forgot to wash it, and he touched fruits on Supermarket (which you, unknowingly touches 20 minutes later). Washing your hands makes sure that your hand is sanitary, and when you touch your food, or scratch your nose, you didn't inhale the virus.
@@MrWillypanda88 Sure. Why not put on the fucking mask on then if you are so worried about your hand touching your face. Should you advise people to wear gloves or masks instead of washing your god damn hands?

One more thing about Vietnamese healthcare system: all corona victims have been tested and treated for free. Quarantined patients are also given free daily food and necessities.
And more people died at waiting the public health service inside the hospital than people dying over dengue fever. Its also in its third reform and they gave up on several estabilished free healthcare procedures puting them on private insurances. Which the average is roughly 60% of the average vietnamese income whereas the american counterpart is literally 8%

Never imagined even death will be made in china
Almost as catchy as the virus
@@Fartalina:)??
After watching this video I then went to my year 5 class and showed the Vietnam song and the dance. We then danced along. They are obsessed with it! They now know how to wash their hands correctly, so thank you!
the song was obviously aimed at children to teach them
Hazel 231 ‘’Year 5 Class’’ its called 5th grade fucking middle schooler
@@maxderp3034 Bro who shat into ur bowl of cereals this morning?
@@hdwitzka 😂
Max Derp, seen as I am English and I teach in a British school it’s Year 5. Different schooling systems around the world have different ways to identify their classes or year groups. Not all about America you know!
As a teenager, John Oliver's statement about dads always talking about the news was perfect for me.
It's There way to connect with their children, so don't be hard on them at least they try :)
@@houssam_12-n7v When I look from that perspective it makes so much sense.
Holy shit. Watching this now is like a fever dream. Like I went back in time to where everything went wrong. Oh my god.
As John Oliver’s says, this songs slaps.
I'll slap you denisse. Not in a weird way haha

I love those little jokes that are easily missed. For instance, the werewolf solution is listed as "all supernatural."
Damn, I missed it. Thanks for the assist.
lool i didn't even catch on to that one
The Werewolf Solution site should have looked like a legit site, let you put some bottles in your cart, and when you click checkout it should say, "You should not have done this."
Jimmy Rodriguez and then redirects you to a site to donate to carona virus research
They seem to have changed it. Now going on the site just takes me to a message "You should not have come here"
theyre looking for infected people haha
Someone.
That moment when silver actually kills the coronavirus
10:40 He was so spot on, he predicted the future.
If anyone’s interested, here’s the link to the full coronavirus song: th-cam.com/video/1vjMly2oX0Q/w-d-xo.html
& here’s the one with English subs th-cam.com/video/BtulL3oArQw/w-d-xo.html lol
Aww. Thank you!
mvp right here
And this's its original song: th-cam.com/video/Vk8_0QaJr3I/w-d-xo.html
hahahahahlol
Viet Nam only has 16 cases and they are all cured. As a Vietnamese, there's no word can describe how I proud of my country. Please take care of yourself and aware of this virus, it's really dangerous
I hope thats true for your sake.
Once again, John Oliver provides more informative, memorable information in 20 minutes than most news stations provide in hours.
And he does it while be simultaneously entertaining.
DestielSnot Absolutely. His humour is brilliant. He and his team do a great job. Humour can be a powerful way to get people to remember your point. I travel a lot for work and many airlines now have humorous videos about safety at the beginning of the flight. You pay attention and you remember.
@@JohnZimmer-MannerofSpeaking So true. Most prime time news today just focuses on the most depressing and toxic parts of what happens in the world. Not saying that it isn't necessary at times, but it gets very old and it kind of drags you down with it.
That is why I like John Oliver. He can discus serious topics in a way that keeps your attention and he still manages to make you laugh with his goofy metaphors and subject changes. In addition, he actually tries to DO SOMETHING about the situation if he can. Most comedians just whine about what is going on. Oliver takes things a step further. Like when he baught out a lot of peoples debt from debt collector agencies. Or when he actually went to Russia to interview Snowden. Or when he gifted Russel Crow`s jock strap to a Blockbuster in Alaska just to help them out. The guy actually tries to make a difference.
They are quoting the news though. The info didn't come out of thin air
2:12 "I told my child that only 2% die and my child, who is bad at math and also a psycho, didn't realize that meant almost 7 million could die in the US, the equivalent of the entire state of Indiana. and I, being a nationally-recognized journalist, didn't bother to educate him because I am a shell of a human, also bad at math, and also a psycho."
I love when a video clip ends and John says, “okay,” like he’s so frustrated with how wrong they are and proceeds to destroy whatever argument they made
Hope fact checkers don’t stick his foot in his mouth again.
I can’t believe John Oliver said “that song SLAPS”, I’m still laughing 🤣🤣
Can you explain why? I'm an English learner and I'm really curious cuz I've seen some comments like yours.
@@laladu6490 it's a piece of slang, a relatively new one, meaning that a song is very catchy and enjoyable to listen to(similar expressions being "it bangs", "it's a banger", etc.). it's just pretty funny to hear a middle-aged british man say it, considering it's a very new and sort of Gen Z thing to say.
@@porqupyne1493 that's why he did it, because it's funny. That's his job, being funny. 😉😎
@@porqupyne1493 thank you! I got it. So the word is supposed to be popular among just young American people and now a British middle-aged man says it, right?
@@laladu6490 yep, that's about it! im glad i could help.
as a side note: john is right, after all. that song DOES slap.
I'm glad we can now finally watch this in Canada. I heard he did a show on this, but it wasn't "available for viewing in my region" so when I saw it finally became available for me and other Canadians today to watch (and JUST in-time too as the virus seems to be getting worse here) I got really excited. I hope everyone who can watch this, does watch it.
Fellow canadian here enjoying this.
I didn't even know we weren't getting full access
@@teja2295 Yeah, it typically takes two weeks after an episode airs before we get access to it.
You can get episodes on time with crave+HBO for about $20CAD/month. They post the monday after the show airs late sunday night
Wow 😯
Me in March 2020: "how scared should I be?"
Me in March 2021: Very F***ING terrified
