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.  :)
