@u0421793@stereophonic.space @petersterne@mastodon.social @thatonecalculator@stop.voring.me Depending on country or region, different trademark names become so dominant, they can be generalized in common usage.
Another variation is the flu or stomach flu. People forget that flu is short for influenza. You get sick, it is a cold or The Flu. I think that is why some don't think flu shots are necessary, because everybody gets "The Flu".
