What ever happened to educating people? Why when there is a misconception/perception of facts, do we need to change the name?
Will they not still be uneducated after you change the name! Things that make you go Hmmmm?

(AP) — WASHINGTON (AP) ? Is the name swine flu hogwash?
U.S. officials said Tuesday they may abandon the term swine flu, for fear it's confusing people into thinking they could catch it from pork ? which is flat-out wrong.
"We're discussing, is there a better way to describe this that would not lead to inappropriate actions on people's part?" said Dr. Richard Besser, acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "In the public, we've been seeing a fair amount of misconception ... and that's not helpful."
