America-Israel Patent Law Blog

This has nothing to do with patents. I suppose it's IP-related in that, with regard to copyright, this is an example of parody and/or fair use. But since the coronavirus scare is affecting everyone in Israel (they just announced that EVERYONE who enters the country, no matter from where, has to stay at home for 14 days), and has led to the cancellation of some Purim celebrations, I thought this would be appropriate.  With apologies to The Knack (and if you're too young to know the original, released in 1979, click here):
