The image is a political cartoon by Chan, featuring a bald, orange-skinned figure with blond hair (a stylized reference) gesturing toward a man in a red “AGA” cap holding a broom, repeatedly saying “Deflect, deflect, deflect.” Behind the figure stands a tombstone inscribed “USA COVID-19 DEATHS 81K+” and “MORE TO COME,” underscoring the gravity of the pandemic toll. The visual metaphor critiques the evasion of responsibility by officials during the early U.S. response to the crisis.
