Duke: *hiding in the attic (aka the 'Battic') wearing Tim's favorite tie as a headband with Steph's foundation smeared across his face in a camouflage pattern*

Duke: S-signal's log. The Coronavirus has spread to Gotham. All members of Batman Incorporated-slash-Family Wayne are under orders to quarantine ourselves by the Justice League and Governor of New Jersey respectively.

Duke: Already, the air is growing stale. Supplies are running short. I suspect that Damian may soon resort to cannibalism.

Duke: Though let's be real, Tim'll probably reach that point first.

Duke: I've managed to barricade myself in a secure location, but I don't know how much longer I'll be able to-

Steph [banging a broom handle against the hatch]: Quit being so dramatic man! We can all hear you up there!

Tim: And we're only three hours in, buddy.

Jason: Wait...why am *I* here? I've got a safe house downtown. I could still make it before--

Dick [snagging him by the collar]: Uh-uh-uh. You're here because Ohana means family, and family means nobody gets left behind or infected.

Bruce: I promise you all, everything is going to be just fine. A little quality time wouldn't hurt us, and restful relaxation never killed anybody.

All: ...

Jason [leaning over to whisper into Tim's ear]: Ten bucks says daddy-o breaks first.

Steph: RESTFUL?

Tim [whispering back]: Fifteen that Duke never makes it out of the attic.

Steph: rEStFuL??

Dick: Guys, we're not betting on each other.

Steph: I'm sorry. You people may be a family-pack of brainiacs, but I'm pretty sure the words 'restful' and 'relaxation' ain't even in your VOCABULARY.

Duke [muffled through the ceiling]: SEE SHE GETS IT

Steph: Listen up, boys. Only reason I got stuck in here with all of you is cause I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Story of my life. ANYway, my mom's on the other side of town. Could I call to see if she's alright? Sure. Have I done so already? Yeah. Is she fine? Also yeah. Is this in any way relevant to my point? I am no longer sure! Where was I going with this...?

All: ...

Dick [whispering]: Fifty on Steph

Jason: *snaps fingers* NOW we're talking!

Bruce: *groans*

Today is WORLD TUBERCULOSIS DAY!

By Miriam Kleiman, Public Affairs

Tuberculosis (TB) and COVID-19 are both infectious diseases that attack primarily the lungs. As we battle the current pandemic, once again the past offers guidance on ways to educate the public about ways to combat and mitigate the disease spread. What do you think of these wartime TB posters? Fear-mongering? Is it good to equate disease with the "most evil of reptiles"? With military enemies?

Most importantly, KEEP TUBERCULOSIS OUT OF YOUR SWINE! See also, FLASHBACK: How NOT to Promote Vaccines (i.e. don't show the grim reaper grabbing children, don't show screaming children, etc.).
