What is the official name declared by the World Health Organization for the novel coronavirus?


  • COVID-19:The disease caused by the novel coronavirus has an official name: COVID-19. In choosing the name, WHO advisers focused simply on the type of virus that causes the disease. Co and Vi come from corona and virus, with D meaning disease and 19 standing for 2019, the year the first cases were seen. In selecting Covid-19 as the name of the disease, WHO name-givers referenced guidelines set in 2015 that ensure the name does not refer to a geographical location, an animal, an individual or group of people, while still being pronounceable and related to the disease.
