Covid19 Dandelion



I've found an instance where an image of a dandelion is being used in connection to Covid-19.

I was looking up travel restrictions and rules etc for travelling in Europe and as I was checking details on the Belgium government website I noticed their use of a dandelion image on the Coronavirus news page. 

I'm still trying to work it out what the connection is between Covid-19 and dandelions.

Hague's Dandelion and Burdock

I was given this drink label a while ago for the Dandelion Archive. Charles Hague of Parkgate was a family business based in Yorkshire running from 1950's until 1980's and this is their Dandelion and Burdock pop label. Looking online for more infomation about the company it seems that it was run by the dad of William Hague (former Conservative MP). Despite this nugget of information, I do like the design with its bold illustration of a dandelion.
