The World Health Organization skipped over the Greek letter Xi (pronounced Kai) because of it's similarity in spelling to the fearless leader of China.

Ahhh yes, we wouldn't want to "stigmatize a region." Good thing they take that into consideration with every single variant name, right?
China owns American media and academia. No wonder we look increasingly like Mao's China after the Cultural Revolution.
