It's disingenuous to claim that the very, very few people that call it Wuhan or China are not politicians and their followers that are trying to politicize the virus and attach racial (Chinese) connotations and blame. They hide their politicization behind the way that viruses were commonly called in the past as if it still applies to this one. It certainly is not "most commonly" called that as you claim. Calling it that is an exception and an inaccurate or ignorant one at that.
