Edit: wait lol all your links say that, and one of your links is the same wiki page. But yeah, that’s exactly what I said: the disease is now called mpox, but the virus is still referred to as the monkeypox virus.
You’re not wrong, but tbf like I said, it is referred to as that for historical purposes. We are moving away from the older name but it takes time. For example, AIDS was called GRID at one point. Not now. Nobody does that.
