Social Disdancing (social distancing + dancing); DisDancing
The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic led to “social distancing.” “Social disdancing” (social distancing + dancing)—also spelled “disDancing”—became popular. This is dancing at a proper social distance from another, or dancing by one’s self while isolated in quarantine.
“Social DisDancing” was posted on Twitter by Manuel C. Widmer on March 9, 2020. “#SocialDisDancing” was posted on Twitter by Elizabeth Monzingo on March 12, 2020.
The term had briefly been used earlier. “Even Fonzworth Bentley is disdancing (distancing himself through dancing) from Kanye” was posted on Twitter by MKupperman on April 25, 2018.
Wikipedia: 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak
The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic is an ongoing global pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The outbreak was first identified in Wuhan, Hubei, China, in December 2019, and was recognised as a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on 11 March 2020.
Wikipedia: Social distancing
Social distancing, or physical distancing, is a set of non-pharmaceutical interventions or measures taken to prevent the spread of a contagious disease by maintaining a physical distance between people and reducing the number of times people come into close contact with each other. It involves keeping a distance of at least two-metres from others and avoiding gathering together in large groups.
