The common cold is an infection of the upper respiratory tract which can be caused by many different viruses. The most commonly implicated is a rhinovirus (30–80%), a type of picornavirus with 99 known serotypes. Other commonly implicated viruses include human coronaviruses (≈ 15%), influenza viruses (10–15%), adenoviruses (5%), human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), enteroviruses other than rhinoviruses, human parainfluenza viruses, and human metapneumovirus.[36] Frequently more than one virus is present. In total, more than 200 viral types are associated with colds.
Samuel Johnson's first dictionary of the English Language, published in 1755, gave the definition of swan as “The ſwan is a large waterfowl, that has a long and very ſtranght neck, and is very white, excepting when
it is young [...]”,
Following your logic, I have just proven that black swans do not exist.
Wiki shows what we mean for coronavirus now, at the moment we are having this discussion. That the world had maybe a different connotations 40 years ago is not relevant at all.
I guess HPIV, Hendra virus, and Nipah virus don't exist because they're not listed under paramyxovirus.
There's a bunch of other stuff that's wrong (for starters, the locations of rubella, dengue, yellow fever) or missing (papillomavirus can cause cancer and not just warts).
If you actually think that your video means anything, you're too unwise to realize how unintelligent this sounds. A coronavirus is a type of virus, as an educated person and barely-sentient animal that can read a Wikipedia article both know. Did the "common cold" kill people like this in the "80s"? No? Then go home, Mr Crowder, and stop spreading misinformation. You don't understand what's going on.
But if you're willing to respond, and in case any other readers still believe you, what's a "rhinovirus" and why does the internet suggest that that is the "common cold"?
