Is SARS-COV-2 just a different name for Covid 19? I'm getting lost and a little uninterested in all these fancy acronyms etc
Is there a 'clever' name for Flu and pneumonia?

Covid-19 is the name of the disease caused by a coronavirus called SARS-COV-2.
Flu is influenza, which is the name of both the disease and a family of viruses that can cause it.
Pneumonia is an inflammation of the alveoli within the lungs, and can be caused by any number of things getting in them that shouldn’t be there.
