Not exactly.<br>
<br>
WHO are being buttheads on account of institutional politics, but they<br>
are not committing actual error, mostly. Their materials refer to the<br>
virus as either 'the virus responsible for COVID-19' or as 'COVID-19<br>
virus': The latter is intended (giving them the benefit of the doubt)<br>
to signify 'the coronavirus that causes the disease called COVID-19',<br>
_not_ 'the virus named COVID-19'.<br>
<br>
They are continuing to use this circumlocution even after International<br>
Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses officiallly named the virus<br>
'SARS-CoV-2' on March 2nd. Why? Buttheadedness, apparently -- some<br>
sort of backbiting or Not Invented [i.e., named] Here syndrome.<br>
<br>
They sometimes justify this with lame excuses like 'using the name SARS<br>
can have unintended consequences in terms of creating unnecessary fear<br>
for some populations, especially in Asia which was worst affected by the<br>
SARS outbreak in 2003', which is what it says on the WHO Web site.<br>
<br>
Translation: 'We're being buttheads.'<br>
<br>

<br>
No, you should not.<br>
