Many people (especially on the political left) call people racist and xenophobic if they refer to COVID-19 as the Chinese virus. I've traveled in China and have great respect for the Chinese people and their culture...no hatred or animosity here.
So, I nominate CCP Virus (the Chinese Communist Party Virus) as a nickname for COVID-19, since it would have become a health care blip if not for the Chinese Communist Party.
