The virus. If people are stupid enough to believe it, so be it. I am sick and tired of scientists and experts being labeled as alarmist for bringing to light critical challenges our world faces. I have lost so much faith in the American people.

Haven't you read The Stand?

Alternatively, we could call it the Trump Virus, Trump Lung, or simply as Trumps (like the mumps - "Bob's in the hospital, he caught a case of the Trumps." )

But it is absolutely vital that Trump's name be in the name of this bug. I want people associating the word "Trump" with disease a century from now.
