[personal profile] hairyears having invented the genre of COVID-19 limericks, I submit:

There is a disgusting disease,
Transmitted by coughing, not fleas.
If you see Farage,
Unleash a barrage,
Of sneeze after terrible sneeze.

(The scansion on this one seems to depend on how you pronounce Farage and barrage; you may prefer "If you should see Farage, Then unleash a barrage"."

The problem with COVID-19:
Its symptoms are not always seen.
So don't be a berk,
But stay home from work,
For Death lies in wait for the keen.

Good work!

Farage also rhymes with marriage, miscarriage and disparage; but I claim first dibs on the compound rhymes with 'rectal miscarriage'.
