Perfect translation

Meme online from a Chinese forum (fortunately I have a screenshot). Hilarious, but sad, though, considering China’s reported covid conditions.

chéngwéi yángxìng 成为阳性 become positive

chéngwéi bìngrén 成为病人 become a patient

If you test positive but are asymptomatic, are you a patient?
