The media are corrupt toadies carrying the dirty water for the PRC Commies.
Take a quick look at how major virus breakouts were named in the past:
Marburg virus - 1967 first discovered in Marburg Germany
MERS - 2012 Middle Eastern respiratory syndrome
Ebola - 1976 near the Ebola River in the Congo, Africa
Spanish Influenza - 1918 it was publicized first in Spain
Spanish Flu spread through the WWI troops in Europe. It was a world pandemic by that time. It then resurged the following year in 1919, eventually killing around 575,000 Americans. My father spoke of getting the Spanish Flu when he was a boy. His was a doctor, but he got it, so did his mother. Thankfully the all survived it. Everyone then was wearing cotton face masks. Some were quarantined, but too many of the infected were named into hospital wards. That spread the flu even more.
Viruses are typically named following the custom of naming viruses after the location of their first recorded outbreak. Yet now the Chinese Commies are trying to get the name Spanish Flu expunged from their PC caddies at Wikipedia. Do not allow this Orwellian censorship!
The Chinese Virus name list now includes Flu Manchu, Kung Flu, Corona Beer Virus, Yellow Peril, Chinese Corona Virus, Wuhan Virus, ChiCom Virus, Mao Flu, etc....
Stay Well!
