For anyone who doesn't know, this is from a hilarious set of commercials that played in the 90s, all with the same format of someone who provides very technical knowledge who turns out to know nothing, but who "stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night"
The business guys set was also very funny.
I get that same sound in my head when people say "droplet".
I believe the actual aired version of the first commercial renamed the virus, but can't recall what they called it. Virus X or some such. Anyway enjoy the series.
I have no idea whom to credit
Some people love their cats more than public health loves children
