World health organisation has categorised the novel Coronavirus disease Covid-19, under the virus category of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). WHO always use two different categories; Disease category and virus category. Therefore, the main family of this disease is Coronavirus hence called as Covid-19 and the virus is being termed as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Most of the people talk about the Covid-19 and refer to as the coronavirus, but they should be saying it as Covid-19 since Coronvirus family has different viruses in its category and the new one, that is being recognised as a pandemic is said to be as Covid-19.
Additionally, the use of SARS name could spread fear among the people since people have been affected in a very adverse manner when SARS spread in Asia in 2003. That is the reason why it has been recommended and practised by the officials that the name of COVID-19 has to be used in the media proceedings and on channels also and especially when media is being communicated with the people.
