A 2009 cartoon by Bob Englehart depicts two people in full hazmat suits at a Halloween party declaring they are not in costume. The image responds directly to the active H1N1 swine flu outbreak that fall. Other guests appear in standard costumes including a cowboy, devil, and Frankenstein monster. The scene underscores public anxiety over the virus spreading at social events. The Hartford Courant published the work on October 30, 2009, as health officials urged precautions during the holiday season.
