   No one has done that here lately.

   No one here is telling people to do that, either, although I am also aware   
   that several places of business are not listening to what they are being   
   told by the state and federal governments.  Some local government offices   
   here are not even doing what our local leaders keep claiming they are.   
      
   It has been weeks since I have seen anyone official downplay the potential   
   that this virus has.   
      
   As for what you told Dan, the term "Wuhan coronavirus" is not being   
   used in just one country (the USA).  I have seen the term also used on   
   recent "in English" newscasts from India and one other non-US source.   
      
   I am worried that, unlike flu, it won't go away when the weather gets   
   better.  You take care of yourself, wherever you are, and feel free to call   
   it what you like.  :)
