This parody is in no way meant to offend anyone who has been seriously affected by COVID-19 or its variants. If you have been seriously affected, please be assured that you have my heartfelt sympathies. Please accept this parody for the intent in which it is given: to (hopefully) bring a smile and lighten your day. Thanks.

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer he says it's just allergies. Olive, the other reindeer thinks that it's a bad disease. They think he's got the Covid but he doesn't know it yet. He's not asymptomatic. He'll have to go and see the vet. Then one foggy Christmas Eve, Santa came to say, "Rudolph with that nose so bright, you're not getting near my sleigh tonight!" So all the reindeer left him to self-isolate you see. Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer is now Christmas history!
