Why It Is Called COVID-19

By Marksman on April 19, 2020@fizx

Kellyanne Conway talked about how the WHO should have been more ready for the coronavirus because it’s “not COVID-1, folks.”

"This is COVID-19, not COVID-1, folks,” Kellyanne Conway says, criticizing WHO for not being “transparent.”

Yes, she actually said that. Here’s the video for proof:

So yeah, can’t believe I’m actually saying this but…there is NO COVID-1, NO COVID-2, NO COVID-3, or any other COVID before 19 that is caused by the same virus.

COVID-19 literally stands for CORONAVIRUS DISEASE in 2019.

The CO stands for CORONA, the VI stands for VIRUS, the D stands for DISEASE, and the 19 stands for 2019, the year it was first discovered.

The 19 has absolutely nothing to do with there being any previous versions of this particular virus!!! Because…there aren’t any previous versions of it! But if there were, they prob would have had snappier names.

COVID-1
COVID-2 FAST 2 FURIOUS
COVID-3 WITH A VENGEANCE
COVID-4 JUDGEMENT DAY
COVID-5 CRUISE CONTROL
COVID-6 THE LEGEND OF CURLY’S GOLD
