Most every well known outbreak has followed that rule. Such as Ebola, Marburg, Legionnaires, Lyme disease (Lyme Connecticut) and Spanish flu. Most others are named due to specie of common carrier such as: Swine flu, Bird flu, etc.

Truth is truth but these days so much information is difficult to find solely due to the large amount of data that has to be reviewed. [emoji111]

I agree with what you are saying, but my comment is really focused on Trump's intentions when he said it.

The camera from the press caught a side glimpse of his prepared speech, and over the word where Covd 19 is, it was scratched out with sharpie and changed to "CHINA".

You couple that with his slight pause and provocative stare into the camera right before he said the word, it's not hard to know that he's simply trying to place the blame on another country for his ineptitude and uselessness when faced with the task of leading a country in the midst of a pandemic outbreak.

You can say this is just more conspiracy, drummed up by people with political motives. But after 3 years of this presidency, i simply do not believe he has a single well meaning bone in his body.

But enough of my rant, this thread was started to share/ provide needed information for our community to better fight off this virus.

Please feel free to add more to list of things to do and to watch out for.

Peace and God Bless!
