Geez, how hard is it to just call it Covid rather than moan about it?
What next, do you want to complain about having to call the HIV-caused disease AIDS, do you prefer "gay cancer"? "Gay plague"?
As to where the hotbed for Delta variant is: nowadays, everywhere!
- joophro 5y agoNobody is “moaning”. We are pointing out obvious inconsistency. What’s ironic about THIS particular virus is that if any virus DESERVES a regional origin name, it’s this one, as this one was most likely created in a lab and released on the world due to lab failures. Perhaps I could entertain the notion forgoing regional naming for viruses of natural origin, so as to not unduly destroy tourism, travel, and reputation of areas that just got unlucky. In this case, though, name and shame is more than fair — it’s deserved. And consistent!
