When speaking about the number of reported infections, it should be qualified as "confirmed infections". [[User:RobSmith|RobS]]<sup>[[User talk:RobSmith|De Plorabus Unum]]</sup> 14:07, 6 February 2020 (EST)

It might be a little late to point out a naming concern, but I don't know if this page should really be called "Coronavirus." A coronavirus is a type of virus which has "crown-like" tips. There are many strains of viruses, which are classified as "coronavirus."<ref>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK7782/</ref> It would be better if we could try to be a bit more encyclopediac and professional about this, and use this strain's name, COVID19. --[[User:DavidB4|<font color="ForestGreen">DavidB4</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DavidB4|TALK]])</sup> 17:59, 17 March 2020 (EDT)
