LOL. That's because you weren't with me when I watched this morning's presser. He is just being Trump with his use of that word now. It's distracting.
That being said, there shouldn't be an issue with calling this virus "Wuhan" virus or other place name. I read a suggestion calling it "CCP Virus" after the Chines Communist Party.
Lagoda already mentioned place names with illnesses. I'd add Hanta, West Nile, Lyme, Rocky Mountain, as names of viruses and other diseases named for where they originated.
Moreover, this virus is a planet changing event. The evidence and studies are suggesting that a large part of the reason is the deliberate indifference, dishonesty, and blundering incompetence of the Chinese health and political authorities. The whole world and all of the people on it are paying a high price for what China did. I know many here are all about accountability. Now isn't the time for the world to have this discussion, but I don't think it's unreasonable to have a permanent reminder of who and what was responsible.
Long term, I think China is now toast as a world economic and political power. Companies and the public are going invest in factories elsewhere and will come to understand that there is more to thriving commerce and business than cheaper widgets made in China.
