wonder how many times they're going to pull the "OH NOES ANOTHER VARIANT" scam
there are over 400 known variations of the coronavirus known as the cold alone.

@icedquinn That is a very disingenuine interpretation, and really your choice of "variation" from a technical position is flatout wrong.

The common cold is not "THE coronavirus" nor is it a variant of it... "THE coronavirus" refers to a specific species SAR-COV-2, which has only a small number of variants.

"Coronaviruses" mean something completely different than "THE coronavirus". That refers to a class of viruses of which there are many (400+) strains, of which "THE" coronavirus is only one.

Strains are to species as variants are to subspecies. A cold virus is NOT a variant of "THE" coronavirus.

Huh? There is no general category called autism that is confused with a colloquial term of "the autism" meaning something different... so this makes no sense.

In the case of coronavirus "the coronavirus" doesnt mean anything remotely similar to "a coronavirus" (which is why scientists do not call it the coronavirus at all).

Prfectly reasonable response to someone not finding your joke funny because it was just a collage of random words with no punchline...

@freemo @icedquinn your personality is that of a middle schoolers. You don't appear intelligent, you just appear annoying and tedious.
