Yup, naming it for a woman makes good sense.

Naming a virus is as fucked up as naming a hurricane. And a hurricane is a fucking hurricane, call it a cyclone or typhoon, it is all the same shit. Just like a virus is a virus, no matter what nation it starts in.
I see no point in naming a hurricane or virus the "ABBA Virus" or "Boru Virus" or "ABBA Hurricane" or "Boru Typhoon".
The black plague didn't give a shit who it killed, anymore than Vesuvius gave a shit about the humans it killed.
YOU created this thread and called it ‘Rename the virus’. Are you fucked up?
