[QUOTE="LE BARON, post: 199224, member: 3515"] We are getting a bit off track here about nomenclature. Irrelevant about where it originated but very relevant as to preventing more from becoming virulent in which case the world needs to work with China to make sure it doesn't happen again.. No one is disputing it originated in China and except for one idiot in China just about everyone concurs. One of the first things Canadian epidemiologists did when this Corona Virus started was to call their Chinese colleagues to offer help. Not to tell them they were stupid for letting it happen. If I see someone with a flat on the side of the road I won't ask them what they did that for but rather see what I could do to help. As to Spanish Flu: [SIZE=7][B]Why Was It Called the 'Spanish Flu?'[/B][/SIZE] The 1918 influenza pandemic did not, as many people believed, originate in Spain. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.history.com/news/why-was-it-called-the-spanish-flu[/URL] I''ll leave it at that [/QUOTE]
