"Everyone recalls that its name was initially the Wuhan Virus. That
is because epidemics have historically been named for the location from where they arise
or are associated. Consider: Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Spanish Flu, Middle East
Respiratory Syndrome, Lyme Disease, Zika, Ebola as some examples. The re-branding as
COVID-19 took significant media effort and signaled a massive disinformation was
coming. The Chinese Communist Party made it known that it did not want this to be
called the Wuhan Virus, and that it should just be called “the coronavirus.” But this
proved very confusing to doctors who already knew of six other coronaviruses. So it was
renamed a third time, as COVID-19, which stands for Corona Virus Disease – 2019."
Challenge anyone who says naming it Wuhan or China Flu is xenophobic. It's always been done that way.
