I call it by a name that is easy to remember, and as easy to relate to.
Hence, to me it is “Swine Flu”. Let others call it by any other names out there: the politically-correct H1N1 Virus, the geographically-savvy Mexican Flu, the other geo-savvy North American Flu, the straight-to-the-point Pig Flu, the in-denial Eurasian Flu, the drama-queen Deadly Flu.
What’s in a name, if it just to confuse us.
Let us not get tangled in this name business and concentrate our effort in mitigating the spread of the disease.
