To protect his baby from the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19), a Chinese cosplayer has created a baby carrier inspired by the popular Hideo Kojima game “Death Stranding.”
The cosplayer, who goes by the handle White Shadow R&D and is a user of Douyin (China’s version of TikTok), showcases his creation in a now-viral picture on Twitter, according to SoraNews24.

In the picture, shared online by user @harakoatom, the cosplayer dons the “Death Stranding”-inspired baby carrier with his infant child inside.
“I’m going to take my child to the hospital today, so I invented this,” White Shadow R&D wrote in his caption.
“Chinese people’s ingenuity is great for taking children from the hospital while protecting them from the coronavirus,” user @harakoatom wrote.

This baby carrier is similar to the one actor Norman Reedus’ character, Sam Porter, carries around wherever he goes.
In the original Douyin post, the user shows a hole with a glove attached to the top where he can put his hand through to comfort the baby. There is also a tube in the front that is connected to an air filter and a raspberry pi display screen indicating the air quality information.
However, eagle-eyed fans also caught another video game reference in the cosplayer’s picture. It turns out, he is also wearing a hazmat suit with a logo of the Umbrella Corporation, a fictitious organization in the “Resident Evil” game franchise.
