We're already in the pandemic phase of SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19), the virus has met the criteria which is most often used for defining a Pandemic for a few weeks now, the reason the WHO isn't calling it such is that after the A/Pandemic H1N1/2009 people started to think it was overblown (note pandemic never refers to lethality, only spread) so they're cautious about calling it one, but it is one, and must be treated as a Pandemic.

I really wish people would stop calling a recently emerged Coronavirus "the coronavirus" it is <em>A</em> Coronavirus, there is a whole family of viruses, the Coronaviridae.

Secondly it has been officially named now: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-related Coronavirus type 2 or SARS-CoV-2, and the illness it causes is called COVID-19 which is short for Coronavirus Disease discovered in 2019.

Continuing to call it "the coronavirus" makes it difficult to educate people on the nature of this virus and related viruses.
