    They dropped that name when the CIA reminded Trump that they had developed the virus on his orders so they could release it in China to damage their economy.  Unfortunately, it came back to bite him.  150,000 Americans and 660,000 people worldwide have died as a result.  It should be called Trump Genocide Flu.

    It actually has been around in bats for decades, just mutated onto humans. 

    How? I’m not sure.

    But covid is the original name and covid 19 is for people

    I hate to be picky, but, do you replace ‘there’ with the word ‘their’, at work? Or, do you just do it when posting online?

    Not only Wuhan. Trump strong-armed China to trade fairly. 

    That is a MASSIVE loss of face for that culture. 

    The Chinese would sooner take a bullet to the head than lose face.

    Because it would get very confusing if another virus emerged from there

    Because Covid-19 is more technically accurate. Insisting on calling it the "Wuhan" or "China" virus is based entirely on trying to place blame. If you want to do that, let's just call it the Trump Virus, since his horrible response is what led to 140,000+ American deaths.
