[Panel 1: Elvie is speaking on the phone to her mother]
Elvie: It's a scourge on society -- a virus whose malign effects spread easily among the poor and ill-educated, propagated by humanity's inherent need for social interaction.
[Panel 2: Elvie's mother, on the other end of the call]
Elvie's mother: No, no -- Not "influenza".
I said, "What's an influencer?"
[Panel 3: Elvie's end of the call, again]
Elvie: Yeah… I heard you.
