Sorry, rant over.
Phil Anderer wrote:All right, it's rant time. I am getting really annoyed with those who should know better, like the government and the media, constantly referring to THE coronavirus pandemic (or any other reference to THE coronavirus). There are 7 coronaviruses that affect humans; 4 of them are mikd and, as I understand it, are various strains of the common cold. The other 3 are Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), Sudden Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), and Covid-19 (SARS-Cov-2). It is misleading to keep making out that Covid-19 is the only coronavirus.
Sorry, rant over.

I don't really see the big deal about calling it "the" coronavirus. It may not be technically correct, but it's how people have referred to diseases basically forever and it's obvious what they mean. Just like when you say you've got "the" cold, or come down with "the" flu. You yourself refer to "the" common cold in that post!
Yes, technically they should be saying the COVID-19 virus, just as you should say you've caught the H3N2 flu virus, but everyone knows what you mean if you say you caught the flu, just like everyone knows which coronavirus you're referring to when you say the coronavirus.

This follows the BLM marches, the celebrations at Leeds and Liverpoo, the packed beaches, VE day, pubs and restaurants reopening and Dominic Cummings. Still no 2nd wave, not even a ripple. Cases are up but deaths and hospital admissions have dropped 97% and the virus has a survival rate of 99.96%.

Hopefully all the white middle aged doom and gloomers live past November and have a lovely Christmas.
Not sure why sex and race was needed in your post.

Because most of the idiots marching in trafalgar Square and furiously tapping their keyboards are white middle aged men. Not rocket science.
It attracts a certain kind of Internet loon, and it's mostly entirely predictable which message board characters will start posting the same old tired tropes.

You what now?
You asked why I brought race and gender into it. The anti mask, anti vaxxer, libertarian march that took place in Trafalgar square yesterday was my answer.
