Quit calling it COVID-19 or Coronavirus. Call it what it is: The China Flu, or China Virus

Call the illness by the correct name for the origin of that sickness, The China Flu. Good grief, people, how do we let people brainwash us?

Covid 19 is the correct name. And anything with “flu” in it is definitely NOT the name since it ain’t a flu.

Depending upon someone’s thoughts as to where the disease came from, syphilis was known as the Spanish, French, Italian, German and Polish disease

Coronaviruses do not cause the flu. I think it should be called “Wuhan Acute Respiratory Syndrome” or CoV-WARS.

FR may run out of electrons.
We may have to start rationing threads.

We need more electrons in a hurry. You hold down Bernie while I rub his hair with some balloons.

And there was the Asian flu of 1957.

Just call the current virus the Wuhan Corona, or something similar.

I could care less about what anyone calls it or if it came from bats, or a lab.

The US government allowed at least 30 flights daily from China to come into the West Coast for weeks after it was obvious this virus was a threat.

It would be nice if the stupid name calling, memes, and insults could be set aside.

When your house is on fire, people call the fire department to mitigate the damage,and put the fire out, not stand around saying “Uncle Joe fell asleep smoking” “Bobby must’ve been playing with matches.” “Granny left the stove on.”

I heard on OAN that Corona beer sales have actually dropped.

For those of you wondering how stupid people can be.

Dems will do what they always do—overshoot the run way and create flu fatigue.

It’s a matter of when. People eventually will realize that they didn’t get it and no one they know got it and it goes the way of the Dodo and Ebola.

Or we can just use whatever system they are using. It’s already bad enough that they used the name of a beer. 8>)
