So we can't call the bat flu "Wuhan flu" but
We can call the variants "Brazil" or "British"?
Going against a fairly longstanding protocol of naming diseases/outbreaks after the location of patient zero or the outbreak origin such as "Lyme, Pennsylvania; Hantan, South Korea; the Spanish flu etc.
The WHO or some other powers decided that calling the bat flu "Wuhan disease" was racist so we have to call it Covid-19 yet the variants are named after the regions/countries they appear in?
Colour me confused.what's orange and looks good on hippies?

If I had a dollar for every time capitalism was blamed for problems caused by the government I'd be a rich fat film maker in a baseball hat.

That’s a new one to me. Seems you flatten the feces instead of rolling it with the Steamer. Makes sense.

I got a bogus speeding ticket in Coxsackie once. They have a virus named after them. So I don't offend them, I refer to the town as Cocksuckie now.

If chiropteran activists like Bruce Wayne have their way, people who say "bat flu" will be cancelled too

OP is going to be disappointed when he finds out the Spanish flu probably should have been the Haskell County flu.

I was just thinking that we didn't have enough covid threads on TGR and needed another one. Excellent!
