According to International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, an organization responsible for naming new viruses, the task of naming a virus is no less important than naming a person.

Over the past decade, some improper names have caused problems. In 2009, the “swine flu” was widely used before the official name, H1N1 virus, was announced. This led Egypt to kill all of its pigs even though it appeared and spread among people who hadn’t been near pigs. In 2015, MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) caused some actions against the nations and people of this area.

So in 2015, the World Health Organization (WHO) announced that the names of viruses should be easy to remember but avoid being named after geographic locations, people, species or classes of animals and foods.

Following these rules, the new coronavirus we are suffering from was named “COVID-19” by the WHO on Feb. 11. In this name, “CO” means “corona”, “VI” stands for “virus” and “D” means “disease”.

Next time you read about a virus you don’t know, you may get some clues about it from its name.
