it's the Wu Flu
@Walnut while technically it has been dubbed the Wuhan Virus, it did come from China...........
Yes but it's coronavirus.
They're named based off the family of virus they inhabit. Not where they come from.
i sneeze all the time
Allergies.
XD
Ugh allergies
ebola, spanish flu etc.
you're incorrect @Walnut

Did y'all hear about the petition going around Wikipedia to have the Spanish Flu renamed to the "1918 Influenza Pandemic" because of the negative connotations of associating it with Spain?
Actually they can be named that way, they typically arent. Considering china is attempting to shift the blame on the US for the virus spread its rather interesting people are coming to China's defense given their lack of efficient respose and proper means of containment.

@Scythe and yet MERS exists....
@Walnut I'm still trying to cope with the symptoms and take it day by day, I stay away from triggers but it's something that I don't really like divulging into that much
Tbh, the onision thing has been a trigger for me
@sleepysclmsft They can only rename one illness at a time. 😦
Onision is a fuck nugget
That came out of left field.
No one should really be defending China right now...
They should not be defended period.......theyre in a LOT of trouble
I agree
I found this video very interesting and informative on why several diseases have arisen from China
